María needs to invest in her tortilla business. This is why she is applying for a new loan to buy the materials that allow her to sell: corn and firewood. This money will be used to buy these materials wholesale.
She comments that her business has gone well, and that the loans have served to improve her sales. Thanks to Kiva, she is in better shape, because her family is doing well.
