Pascuala, 27, is single and has a beautiful family, a three-year-old daughter. They live in a community in the village of Patzite.
To earn her income and get her family ahead, Pascuala buys and sells traditional clothing. She has had this business for five years, but she also grows plantains to improve her income; fortunately she lives in a very fertile region.
Pascuala's worried about not having enough merchandise for the Christmas and end-of-year season, so she's requesting a loan to invest in buying "cortes," "fajas," and "güipiles" [traditional skirts, sashes, and blouses]. She's making this investment to strengthen her business and better satisfy her customers.
