In the city of El Alto you will find the Alto Lima Center. To it belongs the “Bolivia Nueva” Association made up of 13 women anxious to progress in their small businesses. The majority of the group is married and they affirm that they need to help their husbands economically because they have an average of five children each and their husbands’ salaries aren’t enough to cover their household expenses.


The main activity of the association is trade and they sell woven wool sweaters, food, natural fruit juices, cosmetics and other items depending on the season - products they can offer at the “16 de Julio” Market in the city of El Alto.


They need capital to increase the amount of merchandise and in that way generate larger incomes for their families.

Translated from Spanish by Hugh Yarbrough, Kiva Volunteer.
