Candelaria Isabel's story
Candelaria lives with her partner and an adult son. She has no financial dependents and occasionally receives financial assistance from abroad.
Canedelaria sells staples at her store, which has been in business for 8 years and is open every day from 7:00 am until 6:00 pm. Sometimes a daughter-in-law helps her run the business. Candelaria gained experience as a merchant in her youth.
Candelaria is requesting a loan to invest in the purchase of cold cuts and chicken meat to resell, as the end-of-year season is approaching and these products are in high demand. This will help her meet the needs of her customers and generate income to be able to improve her family's living conditions.
Candelaria's aspiration is to improve her home to have a more dignified lifestyle.
