Sra. Anita Sorto has been selling common foodstuffs from her corner store for more than 36 years. Her family is well known in the area in which they live as they were one of the first families to move to Trojes. Anita and her husband have made a good life for their family. They are farmers and raise both cattle and crops, as the land is ideal for these types of agriculture. They live in Elevadas Montañas. Anita has learnt how to run a good business, and she now needs a loan to buy products at wholesale prices so that she can make a greater profit.

Thank you from Prisma Honduras
 
Entrepreneur: Anita Sorto
Location: Danli, Honduras

Dear Lender,

Thank you for supporting an entrepreneur in Honduras! The message below is from Prisma Honduras S.A., Kiva’s field partner in Honduras. As you may know, all borrowers’ profiles are posted on Kiva’s website with the help of microfinance institutions (MFIs) such as Prisma Honduras.

Prisma Honduras wishes to extend their thanks to all the Kiva lenders, and Kiva staff, who during the financial and political crisis that Honduras has been experiencing have continued to support our clients by funding our loans, even knowing that the situation in Honduras has been difficult since the political crisis in June 2009. Our people have suffered a lot, but they still have the inner strength to keep fighting and overcome the difficulties for the good of their family and because they have no other place to live.

Our country is trying to move beyond the political crisis after the elections of the 29th of November. We hope to continue with the valuable support you give by funding our loans and our people. Our goal is to help our clients achieve a better quality of life, by helping to improve their businesses which can help contribute to their food security and that of their families.

Thanks again for your support. The management and staff at Prisma Honduras wishes you all Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year.
