Luisa María, 47, is married, with twelve children (eleven girls and one son). They all attend the secondary school of the town.



Luisa María and her husband are butchers. Her husband’s works in breeding the animals. Luisa dedicates herself to the sales of the animals. She has fitted out a space next to her house and there she operates the business. She also sells fried maniocs and fried chickens.



She explains that she had been running that business for more than ten years, but she was obliged to stop the operations because of health issues. Fortunately, she recovered her health and she could restart the business two years ago. Now the business generates a weekly profit of USD 70.00.



Luisa María is asking for funds to make the business progress. She wants to improve the hygienic conditions of the space where her husband and she run their business. Given the loan, Luisa María will be able to remodel the location where the shop is operated, offer better services to her customers, and will assure the quality of the goods she is selling to people.
