Ruth started her business because she's always liked sales, and it is something that she can do in her house during predetermined hours. Her business allows her to care for her daughter and her home, and its a way to help her husband cover household expenses. Ruth began in March of 2000, first selling beauty products. Now she sells clothing, initially to family, neighbors, and friends. These clients recommended her to others, and thanks to God Ruth's business has done well to date. Now she has a good client portfolio. Ruth's prior loan from Kiva helped her invest in merchandise, with which she supplied her business for the holiday season, and thereby sustained the business.

Ruth needs a loan of US$550, which she'll repay in 5 months. She'll use the money to buy merchandise that will allow her to have a better supply of clothing for her clients and improve her earnings.

Ruth inició el negocio porqué siempre ha sentido gusto por las ventas y el comercio ademas es una actividad que puede hacer en su casa en determinada horas, lo que le permite estar siempre al cuidado de su hija y de su hogar, además de esta forma ayuda a su esposo con los gastos de la casa. Comenzó en Marzo de 2000, primero vendiendo productos de belleza , y actualmente se dedica a la venta de ropa, primero vendia estos productos entre familiares, vecinos y amistades y ellos le fueron recomendando más clientes y gracias a Dios hasta la fecha le ha ido muy bien ya que en la actualidad tiene una buena cartera de clientes. El anterior crédito que recibío de KIVA le sirvió para invertir en mercancía lo cual le ayudó bastante para surtir su negocio de ropa para fin de año y así pudo sostener el negocio.


Ella necesita un prestamo por US $550 que pagara en 5 meses para adquirir mercancía que le permita tener un mejor surtido de ropa para sus clientes y así mejorar sus ganancias.
