A loan helped a member to buy various items of clothing to sell.


Kuña Guapa Group's story

The Kuña Guapa group was formed by friends and neighbors getting together in the city of San Lorenzo. They set growing as a goal, not just financially, but also as people. They are also in the poverty elimination program, which will allow them to know about their situation of poverty and with that, fight to improve.

One of them is Ramona, who in addition to being one of the members, is also the group's president. She is a hardworking person who, with a lot of sacrifice, has been able to get ahead and help her family so that they lack nothing. She says that joining the group is an opportunity for her to get ahead and to improve. She sells clothing and already has a regular clientele. They always order a lot of things for her and she is seeking a way to keep growing.

She is asking for this loan to buy various items of clothing to sell, so that she can meet her customers' demand.
