Teofila

Teofila is a member of the Paz y Desarrollo Community Bank. Teofila, 64, is a single mother, and she has six grown children.

Teofila is from Huancavelica. She started taking socks and jackets to the province and selling them. She did this for various years until everything was stolen, and she was left without capital.

A friend invited her to participate as a member of Finca. She could start selling clothing again. She also started to help in a popular dining room where she received cake making classes.

She currently makes cakes to sell wholesale, and she sells clothes.

Since Teofila has been in Finca, she has learned to save. She was able to buy a refrigerator with her savings.

Teofila needs a loan for 3,000 PEN for flour, shortening, sugar, and clothes.

Teofila’s dream is to have a pastry shop.
