Carla is 18 years old, single, and lives with her parents and brothers. She sells shoes, an enterprise she learned from her mother. Carla buys shoes and then re-sells them at a very fair price, going from home to home in different areas. She began this business a year ago and enjoys it because she is able to interact with many people and she takes pride in giving them a good deal. Due to the quality and variety of styles she sells, her customers are beginning to recommend her and her clientele is quickly growing. This is her first loan with MFP. With the funds requested, Carla will buy more shoes and also acquire a portable shoe display.

Carla compró más zapatos para continuar con la venta de este producto. El haber obtenido el crédito, para Carla significó mucho ya que su negocio se establece y las ganancias que le genera lo deriva para su educación de marketing. Ahora esta más tranquila y con deseos de salir adelante, y más aún que tiene el apoyo de sus amistades que le motivan para alcanzar sus objetivos. Ella agradece infinitamente a todas las personas que le dieron el crédito, siendo de mucha ayuda para continuar trabajando, además agradece a su Banco Comunal ya que le dieron la oportunidad de integrarse siendo ella la más joven de su grupo.
