A loan helped a member to buy supplies to make uniforms.


Angeles De Atasta Group's story

The communal bank "Ángeles de Atasta" is made up of enterprising and responsible women who are committed to improving the quality of life of their families. They live in working class neighborhoods where the living conditions are fair.

This is the case for Yeni, 41, who is married and has 2 children. For 4 years, she's had a business making school and industrial uniforms. With this business, she's been able to generate income to contribute toward the household expenses.

With this new loan, Yeni will buy all the supplies she needs to make uniforms. She aspires to grow her sewing business so that she can provide employment for other women.

The rest of the group includes: Violeta, Ángela, Guadalupe, Rosa, Olga and Otilia. These women are looking to get ahead alongside their families.

In this group: Violeta, Angela, Guadalupe, Rosa Aicela, Yeni Mariela, Olga Lidia, Otilia
