Las Princesas Group's story

Ana Bessy is 49 years old. She lives with her husband and children, but no one is dependent on her.

For a few years Ana has been earning a living selling pupusas. It is a trade that allows her to generate income for her economic obligations. But she would like to strengthen her business so she is requesting a loan to buy raw material to make pupusas. She hopes to improve her income with this investment. Ana wants to have a stable, secure business.

Ana together with Maria and Donia make up the “Las Princesas” communal bank. They are responsible, enterprising people who are looking for the same thing, to get ahead with their families.
