Alejandrinas Group's story

The "Alejandrinas" communal bank is made up of enterprising, responsible women who are committed to improving their family's standards of living.  They live in populous areas with average living conditions.

Such is the case for señora Mercedes, who still buys and sells clothing.  The business continues to allow her to generate an income that helps with the family's expenses.  With her previous loan, she bought a larger variety of clothing.  She is still working to grow her business so she can set up in a store front. 

The rest of the communal bank members are: Ana, Teresa, Guadalupe, Wendy and Jesica.  They are women who, alongside their families, are looking to get ahead.  

In this group: Ana Isabel, Mercedes Araceli, Teresa De Jesus, Maria Guadalupe, Wendy Alejandra, Jesica Paola
