Maria Natividad Villa is a member of the Community Bank "Si Se Puede". She lives in the Yanuncay district of the city of Cuenca. She is 51 years old and she is divorced now for 20 years. She has 2 children, 29 and 20 years old. The eldest is already married and is independent, but the youngest is attending the university in Cuenca, studing law. She lives in a rented house with her youngest daughter.



She is on the cleaning staff of Hotel Tomembaba, but on Saturdays, Sundays and on holidays she sells salchipapas (a regional specialty of sausages and potatoes) as well as hotdogs from her home. And when she has had good sales she thanks God because this is how she is able to pay for the water and hydro bills.



This is her fourth loan. She is part of a large group that help each other and do very well in consequence. The loan will be destined to invest in the purchase of tables and chairs, as well as ingredients to expand her business.



Her dreams are to see her daughter have a career and that she do graduate work in another country.
