Carisma Group

The Carisma group is comprised of responsible and entrepreneurial women who are dedicated to improving their families' quality of life. They live in popular areas with normal living conditions.

This is the case of Rosario, a mother to two school-aged children. She continues to buy and sell pork. She currently sells from her home, and on Saturdays and Sundays she prepares meats to sell by the kilo. This work has allowed her to generate an income to support her family. With the previous loan, Rosario managed to do maintenance on her freezer that was failing. Rosario aspires to have her own butcher shop in a place with the necessary equipment, like saws, grinders, and other tools.

The other members of the group are Mariana, Liliana, Aida, Lucia, and Ana, women who fight day-to-day alongside their families to get ahead.

In this group: Mariana Luisa, Liliana Cecilia, Aida, Rosario Ines, Lucia, Ana Margarita
