A loan helped to buy various items for resale.


Celeste's story

Celeste is 36 years old. She is a merchant. She lives with her partner in her own home. She is the mother of 4 children: 2 are in secondary school, 1 is in primary school, and 1 is not old enough for school yet. She does not hold a community position.

With the amount of the loan, she plans to buy bags, watches, and various other products for resale.

This is the second time she is requesting a loan. With her previous loan, she started construction on her residence. She hopes to request additional loans.

Her biggest dream is to finish a salon and grow her business.
