Junahity Jolie

Junahity is 19 years old. She is a single mother living in Atacames, a tourist, commercial, and agricultural city like Pedernales and Jama, located in northern Ecuador.

Junahity is a very hardworking woman who is always thinking about how to improve her financial situation. Three years ago, she opened a grocery store. Junahity started this business because she wanted to bring in a higher income for her family and be independent. Junahity will use this business to become more financially stable and be able to give her children the best life possible. Of course, Junahity's children are her greatest motivation. Junahity believes that customer service is very important for entrepreneurs.

Junahity is applying for a $1,000 loan with which she will buy goods such as rice, sugar, and flour, to ensure stability in her business and thus increase her income. Junahity is very enthusiastic about this loan and does not want to let down the institution that will provide her with the financial support.
