In a picturesque community in the state of Mexico, the group La Lagunita was formed, which has as its objective to improve the members’ businesses. Francisca is a cheerful and hard-working woman whose greatest interest is that her three children can finish their higher education.
To meet her goals, she has worked raising poultry. Every day, she gets up very early in the morning to tend to her family, the grocery store and care for the poultry. With the new opportunity of the loan, she will be able to purchase milk, eggs, soft drinks, juices, canned goods, etc.
“I am truly content because the support that is given to us motivates us and makes us believe in ourselves,” she said with a broad smile.
