Teresa Isabel is 55 years old, married and has one adult child. Her husband is a merchant. They live in the canton of Montecristi, a place of hardworking people making handicrafts and selling products.
Teresa Isabel is a diligent woman. She and her husband together fight tirelessly to provide for their family, and it is with the help of the loans that they are achieving this. She is grateful for these loans and asks that the help continues.
They sell fish. Her husband goes out to sell, going throughout the city and to nearby fields, where people always buy since they sell fresh products by weight and at a fair price. She in turn sells to her customers that come over to her home to buy.
This loan is for the purchase of fish and bags for packaging.
