Las Orugas Group's story
The group "Las Orugas" (The Caterpillars) is made up of enterprising, responsible people committed to improving the quality of life for their families. They live in working-class neighborhoods where living conditions are poor.
Cecilia is a member of the group, she is 46 years old, married, and a mother of two. For the past 11 years, she has sold live and butchered chickens, generating income to help cover her family expenses.
With her loan, she will buy more chickens to sell.
Cecilia hopes to expand her business to increase her income.
The rest of the group consists of Felipa, José, María, and Nadia, all of whom, along with their families, are striving to improve their lives.
In this group: Cecilia De Jesus, Felipa, Jose Luis, Maria, Nadia Janeth
