Leonarda and her hard-working husband Pascual share their humble home in the village of Pukará with their only daughter and their grandchildren ever since the daughter's husband deserted her and the children. This talented couple has a pottery workshop where they make unique pieces for sale in nearby towns. Their daughter also works very hard in this enterprise. The family would like to expand their production so they are asking for a loan to buy clay in hopes of increasing their income and standard of living. Let's help this loving and talented family work towards their dreams.

Leonarda y su emprendedor esposo Pascual, tienen un humilde domicilio en el pueblito de Pukará, lugar donde cobijan a su única hija y a sus amorosos nietos, desde que el esposo de su hija mayor decidió abandonarlos sin ningún respaldo económico.Esta humilde pareja posee un taller de cerámica, gracias a sus talentosas manos, paciencia y dedicación que ponen en su oficio. Elaboran hermosos e incomparables trabajos que luego son vendidos en los diferentes pueblos aledaños a la ciudad donde viven. Esta labor los viene llenando de satisfacción porque están logrando obtener rápidamente resultados favorables, con el apoyo incondicional de su querida hija.Ahora Leonarda y su esposo están deseosos de seguir acrecentando el número de sus trabajos y para esto requieren obtener un préstamo de dinero que podrán invertir completamente en adquirir materia prima (arcilla) para la producción de más mercadería y así mejorar su calidad de vida y la de su familia.“ Colaboremos con este noble afán para que estos amorosos abuelos sigan desarrollando su labor con mucho talento y amor”
