Edilberta Sima Pech

Ediberta is a single mother, a situation that forced her to have an economic activity that would help her support her children. She also works as a cleaning lady in houses. In a government sponsored program, she learned how to make crafts and with that she worked creating decorations and noticed that in her town there is no notions store, so she combines the three activities.

Thanks to her enthusiasm, she has a great demand. On some occasions she does not have enough merchandise to offer to her customers and this is why she is requesting a loan for US $300 which she is determined to pay in a period of 5 months. With this money Edilberta will be able to buy more merchandise to help her business and two children succeed.
