Dariela is a 26-year-old young woman who lives in an area where women's work is notable and valued. Five years ago she took over her mother's business, which sells fried plantains and nacatamales [corn, meat and rice wrapped in banana leaf]. With the income she earns, she helps her partner with household expenses and her son, who is in elementary school.
This microentrepreneur has visited the nearest MiCrédito office to apply for a Kiva loan to buy pork, corn, tomatoes, banana leaves, chili peppers and onions, with which she will be able to make 150 nacatamales and fulfill an order. Her goal is to make herself known in other eateries.
