Carmen Rosa

Carmen Rosa is a member of the San Judas Tadeo community bank.

Carmen is married. She is 45 years old and has four children aged 22, 16, 14 and 8 who attend public school. Carmen Rosa's husband worked in a factory and with the severance pay he bought a motocar which they have put to work as this business brings additional income to their household.

Carmen Rosa's business is the taxi business: she has a car which she rents out. Carmen Rosa prepares tamales on weekends: 150 tamales, which she sells in her neighbourhood with the help of her children.

She needs a loan of 1,800 soles to perform maintenance on her taxi.

Since joining Finca, she has enjoyed the companionship between members.

Carmen Rosa dreams of going to Cajamarca where she has land which she wants to sow with butter beans, avocado and eggfruit.
