Divinas Group

The Divinas Association has worked with Pro-Mujer for 3 years. At the moment, it has 16 members, and it has proven to be an organized and dependable organization.
Most of the women in the group are marrried, with an average of 5 children, and they find it necessary to find other sources of income since the needs of their children increase every day.
There are different businesses within the organization. For example, Gabriela knits sweaters and baby clothes, Graciela sells vegetables, Gregoria sells cosmetics, and Lucrecia makes things out of leather.
The Divinas Association needs capital for the purchase of merchandise and raw matierals so they can expand their sales, generate more income, and in this way be better able to support their families.
