Elvira is an enterprising woman. She lives in the city of Pucallpa in the Ucalayi region. She is 35, and she has three grown children.

She sells ice cream, “adoquines” (ice with fruit), and yogurt. Her business is in her house. She counts on her husband’s support. He is a heavy machinery mechanic.

She has been a member of the Las Innovadoras II Communal Bank for one year. Elvira started with a loan for 300 PEN, which she used to buy yogurt to sell.

She now needs a loan for 1,200 PEN to buy a freezer. This way she will have more space for her products.

Elvira’s goal is to have a soda fountain and to keep working to achieve her objectives.
