Maria Alexandra's story

María Alexandra and her family live in Mejía del Cantón, Portoviejo, a place with beautiful country landscapes, beaches, and a rich and varied cuisine that attracts tourists who visit this beautiful city year-round.

She is a hardworking woman who looks for ways to earn a living and with it help her husband with household costs. She works raising chickens. She buys the small animals, keeps them for a while, and once they have an adequate size and weight, sells them to merchants or neighbors.

She also continues selling clothing. She goes out to sell and also sells through social media. She sells on credit and charges every 8 days. In this way she is able to earn an honest living, and this is thanks to the help of the loans. She is therefore very grateful and asks that you keep helping her.

This loan is to buy feed and medicine for the chickens as well as pants, shirts, blouses, and other clothing items.
