Las Suculentas Group's story
The Las Suculentas group is made up of enterprising and responsible women who are committed to improving their families' quality of life. They live in working class neighborhoods with average living conditions.
That is the case of Ms. Yuliana who is 41 years old, single and the mother of two children. For six years she has made her living by buying and selling clothing. She sells to her relatives, friends and neighbors in nearby neighborhoods. This work enables her to generate income to help with family expenses.
With her loan she will buy seasonal clothing to keep up her sales.
Yuliana hopes to be able to set up a business in a retail space as she is currently selling door-to-door.
The rest of the group is made up of Nedi, Gladis, Flor and Frida; women who alongside their families strive to get ahead.
In this group: Nedi, Gladis, Flor Del Rosario, Frida Sofia, Yuliana
