Ivelisse Altagracia, 37, leads this group of micro-entrepreneurs who live in the Piedra Blanca community of San Cristobal. For many years, Ivelisse has been involved in informal businesses in order to take care of her five children. The lack of capital had made difficult the continuous progress of her activities. The entrepreneur is thinking about starting a new business which she believes will be very profitable. She has requested a loan to start a small cafeteria she'll be operating within her house.



Ivelisse says she cooks like nobody's business and she's very confident in her chances of making a big success with her new venture. That way, the entrepreneur will be able to provide a more comfortable lifestyle to her family.



The other members of Ivelisse's group are:



Isabel Amancio Morillo, a beauty products retailer,



Alejandrina Cisnero, a beauty salon owner,



Petra Alquidania Cabassa, who sells clothing and beauty accessories, and



Juana Aquino, who retails women's clothing.
