Ana Delia Peña's Group

Ana Delia is the coordinator of this group comprised of five women, all of whom operate small businesses in Hato Castillo, a low-income community of Cotuí. Ana is a single mother who endeavors to support her two children and improve the quality of their lives. She sells plastic containers to mini-markets and pastry shops owners in her neighborhood. She also sells her products to women that produce food to order. This business is the sole source of income of the entrepreneur, and she'd like to strengthen it so that she could have a better income.

Ana Delia will invest her loan to purchase more containers and lids so that she can keep satisfying her clients' needs. She hopes that her business will allow her to have a better lifestyle.

The members of Ana Delia's group are:
Ana Mercedes Florentino, a beauty products retailer,
Juana Antonia Rosario, who sells clothing and accessories,
Isabel Portalatin, a clothing retailer,
Danis Marinelly Soto, who operates a cafeteria.
