Sandra Milena's story

Sandra, a 27-year-old young woman from the municipality of Jardín, is an enterprising, organized woman with a clear vision: getting her family ahead.

With effort and determination, Sandra began a small business selling food retail, which has become her primary source of sustenance.

Today, Sandra asks for a loan to purchase soft drinks, potato chips, cookies, candies, cigarettes, and other products which will allow her to expand her offerings and attract more customers.

This investment represents a great opportunity to grow her business and improve her family's quality of life.

Supporting Sandra is believing in the power of a woman who fights each day for a better future.
