Michelle Dayanara is 22 years old, single, and studying accounting and auditing. She lives with her parents in the town of Portoviejo, known for its rich production of vegetables, greens and tropical fruit for domestic consumption. There are also beaches and a variety of tourist sites.
Michelle is very hardworking and helps her parents pay for household expenses and her studies. In her free time she sells a range of clothing for men, women and children. She goes to customers' homes to sell, and uses social media with deliveries to homes within the town.
Her parents have a grocery store in the town market; Michelle helps with everything they need and works every day. She is very grateful for the good people who help with the loans and hopes that they will continue to do so.
This loan is to help buy t-shirts, jeans, shorts, tops, dresses, rompers, and a range of groceries as stock for the store.
