Auxiliadora Narcisa's story

This is 63-year-old Narciza. She is an older adult who lives happily with her family in a small home, which they rent between them. Her children are now older, and do not depend on her. She is the owner of some sanitary public bathrooms which are placed in a very busy area of the city. She has been offering the service of public bathrooms to the city's population for more than 33 years. At the start, she ran into some difficulties about permission, but little by little, it has improved. So much so that she has also set up a small stall where she sells water, sweet treats, and other snacks that her customers ask for. 

These jobs have grown, which is why she is seeking financial support, which will allow her to adapt her bathrooms and increase her merchandise and shelving, to stock more for her business. This way, she can improve her income, providing better customer service.
