Monise Israel Pierre is a young and ambitious Dominican women who came to Esperanza with a dream and a plan to accomplish her vision. A single woman at age 22, Monise finds her inspiration for day-to-day activities fueled by her dream of one day becoming a doctor. Right now, she travels each Thursday to the nearby city of Santiago to buy shirts, pants, skirts, and blouses to sell in the streets of her local community, Amistad, which means friendship. Monise plans to continue selling clothes in the afternoon while she attends school in the mornings.

Monise Israel is just one member of the 15-person micro-bank, Movimiento Mujeres de Amistad, which means Women's Movement for Friendship. Each of these unique Dominican entrepreneurs unite in solidarity, allowing them to access funding that they would otherwise never be able to receive on their own. The concept of this group bank paying their loan together is to reduce the risk of one person defaulting, as the others members gladly help cover one another’s payments in order to receive their next loan together. Many of the women in this bank have businesses similar to Monise’s, selling clothing in the streets, while several others sell vegetables in the street, and some even maintain a personal hair salon.

On behalf of Monise, the Movimiento Group Bank, and the entire team here at Esperanza International, we thank you for your support and awareness of the global issue of poverty, in which your efforts are helping to make a difference.
