Vaqueritas Group's story

The Vaqueritas group is made up of women who work in different financial activities. They all are providers toward their household finances.

In the neighborhood where they reside their living conditions are normal. With their enterprises they aspire to maintain themselves in business.

Such is the case of Ana who has worked in her snack business for over 30 years. Every day she opens her business at 7:00 in the morning to provide services in schools. Her goal is to have a commercial locale and sell diverse types of food.

The other members of the group are Patricia, Valeria, Yoana, Leticia, Juana and Magdalena. They also aspire to have better conditions in their businesses.

In this group: Valeria Guadalupe, Juana Maria, Leticia, Magdalena, Ulda Patricia, Ana Laura, Yoana Karina
