Antonia Paula's story

Antonia is a hard-working, responsible woman of humble beginnings who has many goals in mind. She earns her living by selling soda and enchiladas from her humble home. Many of her customers are satisfied by the good flavor that she gives her enchiladas. She knows the work of these two organizations [Kiva and MiCredito] very well because she has worked with them in the past.

Once again, Antonia has knocked on MiCredito's door with the goal of receiving a Kiva loan to buy metal roofing, roof beams, bolts, lard, meat, soda, oil, tomatoes, onions, and bags. By making improvements in her kitchen, she will avoid exposing herself to the sun and getting wet when the rainy season arrives.
