A loan helped to buy crockery such as plates, spoons and glasses.


Lorena Del Pilar's story

Lorena is 37 years old, married and lives with her family. Her husband works and they have two children: 13 year old Joel and 9 year old Belén. She comes from a humble, hardworking family and thanks to her desire to get ahead she started up her business. 6 years ago she decided to set up a bar at school and manages to earn enough income to pay their basic monthly expenses.
Lorena wants to continue to grow this bar, but she needs to buy crockery such as plates, spoons, glasses and other things that are necessary to improve the service at the bar. Her biggest dream is to pay for an excellent education for her children and improve her family's lifestyle.
