María belongs to the communal bank "Las Hormiguitas," located in Yarinacocha, Ucayali in Peru. She the 36-year-old mother of three children, and her husband is a driver. With the first loan she received from Manuela Ramos for S./300 soles, she decided to invest in a small business selling automobile spare parts.


Currently, she relies on that store selling spare parts retail and wholesale. She gets up at 6am to see to her children, prepare the food, and tend her store with the help of her husband.


With this loan for $625, which she will repay in four months, she will invest in buying parts such as tires, belts, filters, brakes, headlights, electronic systems, horns, etc.


María is content and grateful because, thanks to the support from Manuel Ramos, she was able to open a business and work independently.
