Jesenia Paola's story

Jesenia Paola is 32 years old, married, has 2 children and her spouse is a fisherman. They live in a rented house in the canton of Jaramijo, a very charming place for its lovely beaches which was greatly affected by the health emergency caused by COVID-19.

Jesenia Paola is a very hardworking woman who strives to generate her own income. Despite the difficult situation she is experiencing, she does not give up. It is for this that 2 years ago she undertook her business selling sheets and clothing for adults and children. She makes her sales as a street vendor.

For her, this loan is of great help because it allows her to continue with her business. This loan is to purchase sheets, blouses, dresses, pants, pajamas, and other items. Her dream is that her business continues to grow.
