Masquilishuat Group's story

Rosa, 43, is single, has no dependent children, and receives no foreign assistance. For over three years, she has run a small shop from her home, a business that allows her to generate her own income and support herself through hard work and dedication.

She is currently seeking a loan to invest in her business and expand her shop by purchasing larger quantities of staple grains such as beans, rice, sugar, and corn.

This investment will allow her to increase her income and improve her quality of life, as well as that of her loved ones, consolidating the economic stability she has built through consistent effort. She, along with Marta, Maria, and Mirna, make up the Masquilishuat (the national tree of El Salvador) solidarity group.

In this group: Mirna Susana, Maria Lidia, Marta Veronica, Rosa Lidia
