Ms. Blanca belongs to the Communal Bank “Luchando Por Nosotras” (Fighting for Us), and lives in Jr.Union Mz. 182 Lt. 1, in the Yarina Çocha district of the Ucayali department. She is 42 years old and mother of two girls, who are her pride. Her husband is an independent worker, but his income is not enough to cover the household expenses. With the first loan of U$ 100, received from Manuela Ramos, she decided to invest in a small food sales business. She presently has a restaurant located at her home. She gets up very early every day to prepare the delicious meals she sells to her many clients. With the recent loan of approximately U$ 435 received from Manuela Ramos and to be repaid in six months, she will buy 12 table cloths, 12 plates, 12 glasses, 2 sacks of rice, 2 sacks of sugar, a gas tank, oil, vegetables, etc. Blanca is very proud of her accomplishments, as she started with very little and is now expanding her business, which makes her very happy and grateful to Manuela Ramos.

Con el reciente préstamo recibido de Manuela Ramos de S/. 1.300, (US$ 435.00 aprox.), el cual será pagado en 6 meses, comprará 12 manteles, 12 platos, 12 vasos, 2 sacos de arroz, 2 sacos de azúcar, 1 balón de gas, aceite, menestras, etc. Blanca está muy orgullosa por todo lo que está logrando, porque empezó con poco y ahora ya esta ampliando su negocio y eso la hace muy feliz y agradece mucho a Manuela Ramos por los logros obtenidos.
