The third woman from the right in the photo is in charge of this group. Maria Carmela has had a business for several years selling tortillas and tones (tortillas filled with mashed black beans). Alongside her husband, she has supported her children in their education. She hopes to give them the best academically so they can hold their own in a profession and have better opportunities in life. She is very thankful to God for her business and to Kiva for supporting her with the loans. She is requesting a new loan to buy corn, beans, and firewood. Her group mates sell traditional clothing, children's clothing, firewood and logs, and they have also gathered to request the loan.
In this group: Maria Carmela, Maria Petrona, Maria Miliana , Maria Teresita, Sandra Elizabeth, Maria Mercedes
