Weaving has always been the principle occupation of Rebeca’s parents, and Rebeca herself is not a stranger to this beautiful work. With great patience, diligence and enthusiasm she goes about producing each one of her beautiful garments, which are then sent in large numbers to the city of Lima, Peru to be sold. Thanks to beautiful designs and finishing touches, Rebeca’s pretty garments are very sought after in the market, and for that reason Rebeca is thinking of purchasing another weaving machine and contracting employees in order to increase the volume of her production. With your help and your good will this hard-working mother will be able to put her plans into action and improve the quality of life for her two young children.
