Ruth Lazcano and her daughter live in their own home in the Alto Sopocachi zone of La Paz. Ruth is employed and works as a secretary for a public transit company in the city. Her home has one bedroom in her home that is roughly constructed (simply brick walls with a metal roof). Ruth would like to complete this room so that it can become her daughter’s room. Her daughter is getting older and up till now still sleeps in the same room as her mother, Ruth.

The loan will be used to do the finish work on the room. This is the first time that Ruth has requested a loan and the socioeconomic analysis shows her to be a good candidate. She is approved for the loan.
