A loan helped to purchase fish, lemon, salt and containers to cure and sell the product.


Aura Leonor's story

Aura Leonor and her family live in Crucita, a place of lovely beaches, a varied cuisine, and friendly and hardworking people who primarily work at the fishing tasks.

She is a hardworking woman who, despite her advanced age, seeks the way to earn her resources and, with them, to get ahead by her own means. She manages this thanks to the help of the loans, for which she is very grateful and asks you to continue helping her.

She works cleaning and selling fish. She sells small fish like pinchaguas which, after curing them with salt and lemon, she sells in containers to merchants who bring them to sell in other cities or sells to neighbors in the place who always ask her for them.

This loan is to purchase fish, lemon, salt and containers to cure and sell the product.
