Catarina's story
The village of Guineales is located in the southern part of the Boca-Costa region of Sololá. It is a place with a warm climate and hard-working people. This is where Catarina lives. She is 51 years old, is married, and is the mother of three adult children.
She has run a banana farm for a loan time. Fortunately, she area where she lives has fertile land, and the climate is favorable for growing a beautiful banana harvest. This business has helped her to generate a more stable income and to cover her household expenses.
Her greatest dream is to improve her home. To that end, she came to the organization to request a loan to buy lumber, which she will use on her house. Thank you, Kiva, for supporting and giving hope to rural women in Guatemala.
