A loan helped to buy construction materials.


Arcenia's story

Arcenia was born in Maputo City. She is 39 years old and the single mother of two children; one is an independent adult, and the other is a minor who attends school. She is not responsible for anyone else and lives in her own house with her family. She is an early childhood educator at a private school.

Arcenia is asking for this loan so she can buy construction materials such as cement and sand to improve her extra rooms. She is a repeat borrower and used the previous loans to buy construction materials. In the future she plans to finish her building project.
