With the first loan that she received from Manuela Ramos, Eldith decided to invest in a sewing shop.

She currently has a sewing shop in her home. She rises at 6:00am, prepares breakfast for her children, and then devotes herself to sewing the clothing that her clients request from her each day.

With this loan, which she will pay back in 5 months, she will invest in fabric, thread, elastic, buttons, zippers, etc.

Though she can’t count on the support of her husband, Eldith has been able to get ahead and overcome the obstacles in her path. In this way, she has been able to help her children, whom she adores, advance in life. She has been able to satisfactorily manage her business thanks to the support Manuela Ramos has provided her.
