The women’s group “Virtuous Women,” was formed thanks to a committee in the same area that helped form this group. There were four meetings before the loan in which 16 women participated, all of whom agreed to the conditions of the program, and whose businesses were formed thanks to a 300,000 GS loan that each has received on the part of the Paraguayan Foundation and Kiva.
They actually find themselves in their fifth cycle and during all of those months that they have related to the Paraguayan Foundation family, it has converted itself into one of the best women’s committees in the area. In this cycle each one has received loans of between 300,000 and 1.2 million Gs. The committee is actually formed of 17 sacrificing women, and the majority of them are the heads of their households, and because of this are very thankful to the Paraguayan Foundation for having given them the opportunity to raise and help their families.

Translated from Spanish by Zach Frey, Kiva volunteer.



El comite de mujeres " Mujeres Virtuosas", se conformo gracias a un comite de la misma zona quienes ayudaron a conformar el grupo. Se realizaron cuatro reuniones previas al credito en donde participaron 16 señoras de las cuales toas estuvieron de acuerdo con las condiciones del programa, y cuyos negocios fueron creciendo gracias al credito de 300.000GS cada una que han recibido por parte de Fundacion Paraguaya y Kiva. Actualmente se encuentran en el 5to ciclo y durante todos estos meses que han pertenecido a la gran familia de la Fundacion Paraguaya se han convertido en uno de los mejores comités de mujeres de la zona. En este ciclo cada una han recibido creditos de entre 300.000 Gs y 1.200.000Gs. El comite actualmente esta conformado por 17 señoras muy sacrificadas y la mayoria de ellas son cabeza de familia es por eso que agradecen mucho a la Fundacion Paraguaya por haberles dado la oportunidad de crecer y ayudar a sus familias.
