Located in a picturesque community in the state of Yoro, lives Maria, age 25. She is a determined woman who cares for the well-being of her family. She is married and lives with her young child and husband, who is a builder and her primary economic support. Maria aspires to have better living conditions, despite certain difficulties such as the lack of the basic service of electricity in her community.
To overcome this obstacle, she seeks a loan from Soluz Honduras to to acquire a solar lighting kit that will improve her family's living conditions. It will permit her to do household chores in the evenings without difficulty eliminating the use of candles or lamps.
