Mujeres Emprendedoras Group's story

Mujeres Emprendedoras is the name of this group. It is comprised of women who are the heads of their families. They struggle in order to be able to improve themselves and get ahead. They help each other search for the way to be able to grow and to improve their quality of life. This is a new group created thanks to each member's desire to improve as they are looking to improve their living conditions.

Yrma Beatriz is one of the members of this group. She devotes herself to sewing. She says that she has a modest workshop in which she works every day. With this she helps with the household earnings. She is a hardworking person who looks for the way to be able to help her family and to cover everything they need. She is happy about the opportunity she has to be able to be part of this group. This is because it will be a lot of help to her in order to be able to invest in her business and to improve it.

She is requesting this loan to buy fabric, thread, elastic and other products in order to be able to continue sewing as she is now doing.
