Alda is a 48 year old mother of 6 children, who she loves very much. She lives with three of her children who work and go to school. She has sold food and cold drinks for 13 years. Her friendliness and great care of her clients makes her a great businesswoman. Due to separation from her husband, she started her business, she did not do so out of suffering, but to overcome. She sells her food from 8 in the morning until 7 at night. Her work makes her feel useful. She enjoys her work because she learns to prepare a variety of platters, at the behest of her clients. She also works in order to support her daughter who is studying at university, as well as to cover the daily cost of living. Alda is requesting this loan in order to have a kiosk built and increase and develop her business, which will allow her to give better service to her clients. In the future she wants to have her own restaurant.
