Trinidad is 62 years old, married, and the mother of 6 children. The youngest child still lives at home and is a student. Her husband works as a carpenter. Trinidad is an admirable and hardworking woman. For the past two years, she has operated a home-based business selling clothing of different types and styles. Her income helps cover the education costs of her daughter, whom she hopes will become a successful professional. What Trinidad enjoys most about her job is the chance to interact with different people and continue learning about her business. She feels like she is a useful member of society. Her business remains profitable because her customers buy from her constantly, especially those who do not have access to stores in the city. Because she lives in a poor area, Trinidad sells her clothing at low prices. She hopes to open a large clothing store in the future.


Trinidad is taking her 8th loan with MFP. She enjoys working with her Communal Bank because all the members are responsible, trustworthy, and caring. She will be using her loan to buy more clothes.

Trinidad tiene 62 años, es una mujer admirable, ya que a su edad es muy trabajadora y empeñosa. Vive con su esposo, quien es carpintero y con la última de sus 6 hijos, quien es estudiante. Desde hace 2 años se dedica a la venta de ropa en todas las variedades y para los diferentes géneros, actividad que realiza desde su casa. Con esta labor está solventando los gastos estudiantiles de su hija, a quien espera verla, más adelante como una buena profesional. Lo que le gusta de su trabajo es relacionarse con varias personas y sobre todo aprender mucho sobre el negocio, pues así se siente útil ante la sociedad. Por otro lado, su negocio le es rentable porque le compran constantemente, en especial las personas que no tienen acceso a las tiendas de la ciudad, porque Trinidad vive cerca de una zona muy pobre, por lo que vende sus prendas a bajo precio. Su deseo a futuro es tener una tienda grande de ropa. Este es su 8vo crédito con MFP y lo que le gusta de su banco comunal es todos los integrantes son personas con mucha responsabilidad, confiables y solidarios. El dinero que viene solicitando lo invertirá en la compra de más ropa.
