The group "Los Cusis" is represented by Mrs. Leticia and comprised of 14 members, including Leticia's sister Sarah Milena. Both have individual incomes, and as such bear no risk to the group. The majority of the group's members sell products such as food, cosmetics, handicrafts, books, clothing, and groceries. The business competition is quite high, however, the group's dedication and inspiration to work help them supersede the competition. The group is requesting financing to buy new merchandise and materials in order to expand their sales posts and generate higher revenue, which will allow the members to improve their families' quality of life. In general, all of the group members have experience, thanks to previous financing from similar organizations like Agrocapital Foundation, who know about the responsibility and compromise required to receive economic support for businesses.
