Gloria Isabel's story

Gloria is a responsible, friendly and charismatic mother who lives with her husband and her two small children who are still in school. She has worked for more than fifteen years making purses, backpacks, and other types of garments to order. Through this work, she has been able to support her humble home, and it is for this reason that she is asking for a loan to buy fabric, fasteners, zippers, sponge, mesh, straps, and other supplies to make backpacks and purses to deliver her orders on time and improve her profits.
