Aguilas Group

THE COMMUNITY CENTER “ALTO LIMA” IS LOCATED IN THE BALLIVIAN ZONE OF THE CITY OF EL ALTO. THE “AGUILAS” ASSOCIATION, COMPRISED OF 18 ASSOCIATES, MEETS THERE. THEY ARE A VERY AGREEABLE GROUP THAT,WITH THEIR LOAN ADVISOR, RICHARD SUXO, HAS WORKED WITH PRO-MUJER TO COMPLETE TWO LOANS. THE MAJORITY OF THEM HAVE SMALL CHILDREN THAT REQUIRE BASIC MEDICAL ATTENTION. THAT IS TO SAY THEY HAVE NOT HAD VACCINATIONS OR MEDICAL CHECKUPS FOR LACK OF ECONOMIC RESOURCES.

THE ACTIVITIES THAT THE "AGUILAS" ASSOCIATION MEMBERS PERFORM ARE OF ALL TYPES. FOR EXAMPLE, ONE OF THEM IS DEDICATED TO CARPENTRY. ANOTHER BAKES BREAD AND BISCUITS FOR SALE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD STORES. BUT THE MAJORITY ARE DEDICATED TO THE MANUFACTURE OF CLOTHES SUCH AS: JACKETS, BAGS, SPORTS CLOTHES AND ALSO WHAT THEY CALL THE DRESSMAKING OF CASUAL CLOTHES; THAT IS TO SAY BLOUSES, SKIRTS AND T-SHIRTS.

THEY STATE THAT THEY NEED MORE CAPITAL FOR THE PURCHASE OF MACHINES FOR THE BAKERY AND CLOTHING BUSINESS, SO THEY CAN INCREASE THEIR PRODUCTION AND QUALITY. IN THIS WAY THEY HOPE TO BE ABLE TO GENERATE GREATER RESOURCES, ALL THIS FOR THE GOOD OF THEIR FAMILIES, SINCE INCREASING THEIR INCOMES WILL ALLOW THEM TO ASSURE THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THEIR CHILDREN.

LA MAYORIA DE ELLAS TIENEN NIÑOS PEQUEÑOS, QUE REQUIEREN ATENCIONES MEDICAS BASICAS, VALE DECIR QUE NO CUENTAN CON VACUNAS Y VALORACIONES INDISPENSABLES, POR FALTA DE RECURSOS ECONÓMICOS.

LAS ACTIVIDADES QUE REALIZA LA ASOCIACIÓN “AGUILAS” SON DE TODO TIPO, POR EJEMPLO UNA DE ELLAS SE DEDICA A LA CARPINTERIA, OTRAS PRODUCEN PAN Y BISCOCHOS PARA LUEGO OFRECERLOS A LAS TIENDAS DEL BARRIO, PERO LA MAYORIA SE DEDICA A LA CONFECCION DE ROPA COMOS SER: CHAMARRAS, SACOS, ROPA DEPORTIVA Y TAMBIEN COMO ELLAS DENOMINAN LA COSTURA DE ROPA LIVIANA, ES DECIR BLUSAS, FALDAS Y POLERAS,

AFIRMAN QUE NECESITAN MAYOR CAPITAL PARA LA COMPRA DE MAQUINAS DE CONFECCION, ASI AUMENTARIA SU PRODUCCIÓN Y CALIDAD, DE ESTA FORMA PODER GENERAR MAYORES RECURSOS, TODO ESTO PARA EL BIEN DE SUS FAMILIAS YA QUE AUMENTANDO SUS INGRESOS PODRIAN ASEGURAR LA SALUD Y BIENESTAR DE SUS HIJOS.
