La Iglesia De Dios Pachoj Group's story

Manuela is an enthusiastic, hardworking woman. She is married and 34 years old. She takes acre of her son harmoniously in a beautiful place called Aldea Guineales.

To contribute to the home with her husband, she grows and sells bananas in her community. She has been running this business for several years. It has brought benefits to her life as a Guatemalan woman. She is happy with what she is doing, and despite the COVID-19 pandemic, she keeps giving to her community.

She and her group are seeking to improve their income. That is why they are asking for their first loan to invest in their different businesses. Manuela specifically wants to invest it in buying construction materials like blocks, cement, and sand.

In this group: Manuela , Ramón , Pascuala , Miguel
