Reina Elena works selling crafts. She sells knitwear, sweaters and purses in various street markets in Cusco. She makes handicrafts; she knits sweaters and purses. She’s been in business five years and her dream is to have a locale where she can sell her crafts. She requests a loan to buy yarn in assorted colors and knitting needles at wholesale. She’s happy about the loan and commits to make her installment payments.

I chose this loan because... this borrower is a knitter just like we are! Love you.
