María Antonia

400 USD financed in April 2017

Maria lives in Jiquilisco, El Salvador. She never went to school because her parents believed that education is not important. Maria and her partner, who works as a fisherman, have three children: one of them is independent and other two attending school. She has been working from age 7 together with her mother, who used to sell fruits and cashews on busses with Maria by her side. Now Maria continues selling fruits and cashews. She needs this loan to buy cashews to continue selling. Maria wants to improve her house and she hopes her children will be professionals.
