Ruth Lorena's story

Ruth Lorena and her family live in the city of Portoviejo, a place of lovely places which mix rural landscapes and beaches which are visited by many all year round.

She is a hardworking woman who seeks the way to earn her resources and, with them, to help her spouse get their household ahead. She manages this with the help of the loans and, for this, is very grateful and asks you to continue helping her.

She works selling shoes. Her sales method is door-to-door, at her house, and on social media. She sells on credit and collects weekly. So, she is managing to earn an honest living.

This loan is to purchase shoes and sandals in various designs and sizes.
