Ivania has been a hard-working woman since her youth. She is 55 years old and is a business woman. She has a stall through the Nicaraguan basic food program "Enabas" where products like basic grains are sold at low cost. She has good sales. Of her three children, only one lives with her, and that child studies and works. She also counts on the support of her husband who works as a driver. Ivania wants to improve the rooms of her house, creating more space, improving the walls, ceiling, and doors. She will buy block, sand, cement, iron, zinc roofing tiles, and purlins (supporting structures for the roof) in order to begin the work.
