A loan helped to perform maintenance on two looms in her workshop, and to buy fabric and thread.


Aracelly Del Socorro's story

Aracelly is a person who has been characterized as being very hard-working and as always wanting to give her best. Approximately 30 years ago, Aracelly gained experience in artisan work, since where she worked they taught her how to use artisanal as well as industrial looms. With her knowledge, Aracelly then decided to open her own workshop making clothes for babies, and she also sells thread and fabric. Thanks to this, Aracelly earns the income necessary to be able to cover the expenses of her household, where she lives with her partner and her three children.

Aracelly dreams that in the future her business will grow and consolidate into a leader in her region, for which she works hard every day. Before Aracelly's business can continue to operate efficiently, maintenance is required for two of her looms, and it is also necessary to purchase thread and fabric for production. Nevertheless, Aracelly does not have sufficient capital, so she is hoping that a loan will permit her to perform the maintenance on her two looms and to buy thread and fabric in order to continue making her products. Aracelly hopes that in the next months her sales will increase considerably, since it is at this time that orders for her products increase considerably. With the income that she earns, she wants to give her 3 children the best education possible.
