The "Las Conquistadoras" (the conquerors) group is made up of 12 partners that mainly live in the kiswaras region and is represented by Miss Virginia. Most of the partners are dedicated to sewing clothes, knitting hand made articles, and selling food, groceries and car parts. The competition in the sectors that they work in is hard but the partners know how to succeed with their will and effort. The use of the financing will be for the purchase of raw materials and tools that help them make a more attractive finished product for the markets where they compete. The partners are currently in their fifth cycle so they have experience in solidarity groups and they have shown they are solid, responsible and willing to work to provide their family with a better quality of life.

Translated from Spanish by Esteban Riojas, Kiva Volunteer


El Grupo “Las Conquistadoras” esta conformado por doce socias que en su mayoría radican en la zona de kiswaras y se encuentra representado por la señora Virginia. La mayoría de las socias se dedican a la costura de prendas de vestir, elaboración de prendas tejidas a mano y a la venta de comida, abarrotes y repuestos para vehículos. La competencia en el rubro al cual se dedican es alta pero las socias saben como salir adelante con esfuerzo y ganas de salir adelante. El destino del financiamiento es para la adquisición de materia prima y herramientas que ayuden a realizar un producto terminado más atractivo para el mercado en la cual se desenvuelven. Las socias se encuentran cursando su quinto ciclo por lo que cuentan con experiencia en grupos solidarios y demostrando solidez, responsabilidad y ganas de trabajar para brindarles a sus familias una mejor calida de vida.
