Wendy Bautista Rodriguez is an enterprising interior decorator. Her business, Wendy Decoracion, sells scented candles, framed three-dimensional reliefs, baby accessories, curtains, pillow cases, and other textiles. She will use this loan to buy materials to expand her stock of goods. Wendy's entrepreneurship helps her and her husband Juaquin support their two daughters: Lisi (10) and Dilovi (6). Wendy hopes her business will be successful enough to be able to provide Lisi with the computer lessons she's wanted. If Lisi learns how to use a computer, she can someday work in an office in the town near her home.

NOTE: Wendy is one of five microentrepreneurs in her Bank of Hope solidarity group, all of whom have gone through Esperanza's business training courses. Each of the five members will receive a share of this $800 loan for their respective businesses and will be accountable to each other for repaying their share of this loan together. This group-lending method strengthens social needs in a community and ensures that members cooperate to help one another repay their loans and invest wisely in their businesses and families.
