Karen Julieth's story

Karen is a determined and enterprising woman with a heart full of dreams. For several years, she has worked on her own in her food products business in the municipality of Espinal, Tolima. With effort and dedication, she has provided for her son, bravely facing challenges day after day.

Today, Karen now needs a loan to buy essential supplies like meants, cured meats, containers, sauces, bags, vegetables, and drinks. This investment will allow her to stock up and meet the competition in the area, improve her sales, and ensure a more stable income for her family.

Karen is grateful for the opportunity that the Kiva lenders and the Interactuar Corporation are granting her and for the chance to make her dreams come true and complete the projects she has planned for the wellbeing of her son and herself.
