Ninfa is 44 and her husband, Nelson Ruiz, is 37. They live in a very nice house with their three children and Ninfa's mother in the Golondrina neighborhood in the city of Villa Hayes-Chaco.
Ninfa tells us that, thanks to some savings she had, she was able to open a convenience store where she sells different kinds of basic goods such as sugar, flour, fruit, vegetables, pasta, etc.
For the past few years she has worked with loans that Fundacion Paraguaya has granted her, and this time she is requesting a new loan with which she will acquire a greater variety of goods for her business, since due to the year-end holidays her customers demand a greater amount of products.
Translated from Spanish by Molly Puglisi, Kiva Volunteer.

La señora Ninfa tiene 44 años, y su esposo Nelson Ruiz tiene 37 años de edad, ambos viven en una casa muy bonita con sus tres hijos y la madre de doña Ninfa en el barrio Golondrina de la ciudad de Villa Hayes - Chaco.

Doña Ninfa cuenta que gracias a un pequeño ahorro que tenía pudo abrir su despensa, donde vende distintos tipos de artículos de primera necesidad como azúcar, harina, frutas, hortalizas, fideos, etc.

Hace varios años que trabaja con los créditos que le otorga la Fundación y en esta oportunidad está solicitando un nuevo crédito con el que surtir de mayor variedad su negocio, pues como se acercan las fiestas de fin año sus clientes demandan mayor cantidad de productos.
