A loan helped to buy groceries and products for her restaurant.


Wendy Mileni's story

Wendy is 36 years old. She is married and has 2 children who are 11 and 3 years old. She and her husband work in commerce. They live in the city of Manta which is considered one of the most important ports in Ecuador and with beautiful and touristic attractions to visit.

Wendy is a woman who, together with her husband, daily looks for ways to pay for the household expenses and at the same time to help her children to succeed. For this reason she decided to set up a small restaurant 3 years ago, focused on the sale of exquisite breakfasts, lunches, snacks and menu dishes.

Wendy works every day with the help of her husband and 2 more ladies, and this allows her to generate an income with which she can solve certain needs.

This loan is to buy groceries and products for the restaurant. Her dreams are for her restaurant to succeed, and to give her children a good education.
