In a community of Estado de Mexico are fields full of thriving greenery and the song of birds spreads through the pure air that traverses the streets. Very friendly people live here, hardworking with a deeply rooted sense of responsibility. The main activity is animal husbandry and growing corn whose harvest just ended and now they are waiting until the month of April to sow again the native product. In addition, it is a place with Mazahuas roots where they preserve the traditions and patron saint festivities.
Aylin is a very happy youth. She is hardworking with a big smile that infects all her companions in the Las Patitas group. They are also very proud of their traditions and place of origin as it is more satisfying to achieve success against more adverse situations.
She is single and wants to take take advantage of her youth to generate favorable income. She is asking for a loan through VFMéxico to invest in a pharmacy she inherited from her mother. “My mother is a doctor and for 17 years I have been interested in being a part of their activities,” she commented with enthusiasm.
Thanks to her special attention with every client and her extensive variety of drugs she has been able to successfully establish one of the best pharmacies in the area. “The loan will be a big help because I can buy more medicine,” she added. Through the years she has acquired enough experience to be able to meet the needs of each of the patients who are treated with special attention by her mother.
For now her only goal is to expand the facility in order to offer products in greater number as their clients trust in their abilities. At the same time she is finishing her professional studies as she has been studying to be a successful psychologist.
