Bertha is a 40 year old lady, she's married, and has a beautiful family of 3 children of ages between 3 and 22. They live together in a community in San Andrés Semetabaj.
Bertha, wishing to generate income and help her husband with household expenses, has been working in the production of traditional fabrics for 15 years. She chose this activity because its the family business, but to improve their income she also works in the cultivation of peas and potatoes.
Bertha is a very entrepreneurial woman because she has now decided to buy a plot of land to continue expanding her crops, but one of the difficulties she has is that she does not have enough money available. This is why she is requesting a loan so she can buy a plot of land.
Bertha's dream is for her children to graduate and to buy them a house.
