A loan helped to buy thread in various colors as well as a new loom.


Jennifer Marilu's story

Jennifer lives in a beautiful place called San Juan Comalapa. She is part of a close-knit family and lives next to her parents. She has three young children.

Years ago, Jennifer began her business making waistbands and woven fabrics. She is grateful for this business because it has benefited her life, and the earnings have provided for her children's needs. This motivates her to continue running her small business.

Increasing her income is one of Jennifer’s dreams, and for this reason, she is seeking a loan to invest in thread of various colors as well as a new loom. This plan will help her move forward with her business, which she manages with great dedication.
