Shirley Raquel's story

Shirley is a micro-entrepreneur who is thirty years old. She is single and the mother of a minor. Over a period of time, she has worked selling different types of merchandise in order to generate income and to maintain the home.

In the past, Shirley has received a loan from these two partners in order to strengthen her business, and she has done that.

Shirley is currently requesting another Kiva loan through MiCredito to buy blouses, pants, shoes, shorts, and undergarments in order to offer a greater variety and increase her earnings. She hopes to continue growing her business with the financial support of these two allies.
