Maria Gabriela's story

Maria Gabriela and her family live in the Rocafuerte canton, where the most delicious sweets are made by hardworking people who struggle tirelessly to support their families.

She is a hardworking woman who seeks a way to earn her living and help her family get ahead. This is only possible thanks to the help they receive through loans. For this reason, she is very grateful and asks for continued support. She has a dining room in her home where she prepares and sells roast beef accompanied by lentil or red bean stew, chosen by her customers, who come to try these delicacies she prepares with love. She also sells a variety of seafood, which she stores in a freezer so that when her customers buy it, it is in good condition.

This loan is for the purchase of fish, shrimp, squid, and groceries to prepare the meals.
