Margarita Justina

Margarita Justina and her family live in the canton of Montecristi. It is a place famous for its straw hats and a wide variety of handicrafts made by local artisans.

Margarita is a hardworking woman who looks for ways to earn an income in order to help her family move forward with dignity. She is able to do this thanks to the support she receives through loans, for which she is very grateful and asks that this help continue.

She runs a small store from her home, where she sells rice, sugar, detergents, canned tuna, soft drinks, water, and other groceries. This allows her to meet the needs of her customers who come to her store to make their purchases. Margarita will use this loan to buy rice, sugar, detergents, tuna, soft drinks, water, and other groceries.
