The New Hope group was formed thanks to Mrs. Gladys Rosso, a former member of another group of borrowers, who contacted her friends and neighbors to form the current group. Sara Rosso, as well as the majority of the other group members, has a small shop in the Abasto market.



The group consists of 17 women from different neighborhoods. They are engaged in various activities such as the sale of clothing, garlic, cafeterias, etc. and also work cleaning houses and offices in order to obtain a fixed weekly or monthly income.



The women are seeking loans of ~$225 per person. They need the loans in order to purchase clothing, consumer goods, food, etc. to sell. This group has already benefited from one loan from Kiva which they invested in each of their businesses to improve their incomes and grow their business.



Translated from Spanish by Scott Crandall, Kiva Volunteer.



Para la formación del presente comité fue la señora Gladys Rosso, ex integrante de otro comité la que inicio el contacto con las demás integrantes. La señora contacto con sus vecinas y amigas para formar el comité. Sara Rosso tiene un pequeño copetín dentro del Mercado de Abasto, como así también la mayoría de las integrantes tienen su local de venta dentro del Mercado de Abasto.


El comité esta constituido por 17 señoras de diferentes zonas. Las señoras tienen actividades diversas como venta de ropas, ajo, comedores, despensas y también realizan trabajo como limpieza de casas y oficinas con lo que logran obtener un ingreso semanal o mensual fijo.



Las señoras retiran un crédito en promedio de 900.000 guaraníes cada una. Ellas solicitan el crédito para la compra de ropas, artículos de primera necesidad, y otros. Para su posterior venta. Este grupo ya fue beneficiado por un préstamo a través de Kiva, el cual habían invertido en sus respectivas actividades logrando grandes beneficios y crecimiento en sus negocios.
