The San Valentin Group is an old client of Emprender. Over time there have been changes in the group members for various reasons. The most recent group configuration of the San Valentin Group has existed for a bit over a year and they have proven their efficiency in their tasks.



From its beginnings this group has been formed by members with very similar activities or activities which are related. This has strengthened the links between the group members.

The group leader is Mrs. Julia Laura, she sells automotive lubricants. Her job has allowed her to be an active collaborator in the family finances. Together with her husband they lovingly take care of their children to ensure they have all their needs met.



She also efficiently manages the microloan repayment for her group, which is why all members of the San Valentín group consider her the group leader and treat her with a lot of respect.



Mr. Eugenio Barrigola is a locksmith and was the founder of the group. For personal reasons he decided to leave the group two years ago. However, the opportunity to benefit from Kiva´s financing motivated him to return to the group to seize this opportunity.



Mr. Antonio Condori is a car mechanic and specializes in vehicles destined to public transport. He has been with the group for a year and is a responsible father who really loves his work.



Mr. Roberto Choque is a bus driver and he puts a lot of care into his job. He is also a founding member of the group and stands out for his responsible attitude.



There is a friendly atmosphere within the group. Mrs.Julia, Mr.Eugenio and Mr.Antonio have their businesses facing each other in the same street and Mr.Roberto often utilizes their services.

El Grupo San Valentín es un antiguo grupo cliente de Emprender, Ha sufrido en el transcurso del tiempo, diversas modificaciones en sus integrantes por diversas razones. La última conformación del grupo San Valentín, conformado por 4 personas, lleva con nosotros algo más de un año, demostrando mucha eficiencia en sus labores.

Desde sus inicios este grupo se ha caracterizado, porque sus integrantes tienen actividades parecidas o relacionadas entre sí, lo cual ha fortalecido el lazo de amistad que los ha unido en este grupo.

La jefe de grupo es la señora Julia Laura, que se dedica a la comercialización de lubricantes para automotores, labor que le permite ser ecónomicamente activa en la manutención de su hogar, quien junto a su marido atienden cariñosamente a sus hijos procurando que no les falte nada. Además administra con mucha eficiencia los desembolsos y pago de las cuotas de su grupo, por este motivo todos en el grupo San Valentín la consideran jefe de grupo, y la tratan con mucho respeto.

El señor Eugenio Barrigola es cerrajero, fue fundador del grupo, pero por motivos personales decidió retirarse del grupo hace dos años, sin embargo, la oportunidad de ser beneficiado por el financiamiento de Kiva lo motivó a retornar al grupo en esta oprtunidad.

El Señor Antonio Condori, es mecánico, su trabajo relacionado a la reparación de automotores, en especial, dedicados al transporte público, lo relacionó con el grupo, y forma parte de este desde hace un año. Es un padre responsable y ama mucho su trabajo.

El señor Roberto Choque es transportista, se dedica a la conducción de vehículo de transporte público, trabajo que realiza con mucho esmero, es un cliente tambien fundador del grupo y se destaca por su responsabilidad.

La relación del grupo es de amistad la señora julia, el señor Eugenio y el señor Antonio tienen sus negocios frente a frente y el señor Roberto, es muchas veces cliente de ellos.
