Melania Aurora Mendez Quintero

Melania is 37 years old. She lives in the Laureles Norte neighborhood of the capital city with her oldest son and her husband. Both her son and her husband work. Her husband is a salesman and helps with the household expenses. Doña Melania has a business selling clothes and miscellaneous items. She has been a saleswoman for three years. With a loan from a finance company, she was able to start her own business. Sometimes business is tough, since sales are not what she had hoped. Now she is part of Afodenic and enjoys their repayment methods because their interest rates are low. She is going to invest this loan in infrastructure by building a wall in front of her house. This wall will give her family a little more security. For the construction project, she needs to buy stone, cement, sand and iron. Her long term goal is to invest in her business so she can pick up more clients and obtain better earnings.
