A loan helped to purchase clothing.


Narcisa Michelle's story

Narcisa Michelle is 19 years old, in a committed relationship, has a 2-month-old child, and her partner is a fisher. They live in Manta, a place of hardworking people who, despite the difficulties, seek the way to get their families ahead.

She is a hardworking woman who seeks the way to earn her resources and, with them, to be able to help her partner with the household expenses. She currently does not have a job, so she is asking for this loan to undertake a business selling clothing such as pants, shorts, blouses, shirts, dresses, children's clothing, and more. She plans to boost her sales as a street vendor and on social media, since for now she does not have a retail space. But, her dream is to outfit a space in her house to be able to serve her customers.

This loan is to purchase clothing.
