Cristina Viviana

Cristina is 32 years old and a loving mother to her happy and extroverted little ones who motivate her every day to continue fighting to obtain a better life. Together they live in a modest lean to house that was built on land they were given as an inheritance. For a living, Cristina has a small paper shop which opened its doors to the public 5 years ago, taking advantage of the fact that there is no competition in the area. 

Lately, Cristina's entrepreneurship has confronted some limitations due to a lack of working capital because she had an unexpected cost that imbalanced her finances. For this reason, she is looking for financial help to buy paper products, showcases, and bookcases along with work tools. This investment will let her increase her stock which translates to more sales that generate stable income to improve the quality of life for her children.
