Ana is a person who has always been characterized as being very hardworking. Thanks to this quality she has had the opportunity to offer her family a better quality of life.
Ana is married and has two children, ages 6 and 8, and she has always wanted to give them a better quality education. Ana is a seamstress, which she learned working for a tailoring business. But when she had her first son, she saw the need to be with him, and for this reason she could no longer go to work.
Because the salary earned by her husband wasn't enough to cover all the household expenses, Ana had the idea of continuing with her work but from her home, and in this way she could earn an income while at the same time staying home to care for her son. This is how she opened her own tailoring business, which little by little has grown in sales. With the business Ana has the means of contributing economically to her household, and can have a better quality of life.
Because she started her business with very little capital, Ana is looking for a loan that will give her the opportunity to buy a coverstitch sewing machine. This will complete her shop and allow her to offer her clients completely finished garments.
Ana hopes that with this her income will increase significantly, as she will be able to offer her clients completed garments, when before they needed to be worked on by an intermediary. Ana hopes that with a higher income, her family will be able to enjoy a better quality of life and more economic opportunities; she dreams that her shop will grow, that she'll have steady work, and that she'll be able to offer employment to people who need it most.
