Luz Maria's town loves her quesadillas, and a loan could turn her culinary popularity into an education for her four children.
With the help of her husband she started to sell sopes, quesadillas, tacos, enchiladas, and more; and there was a lot of demand, but she did not have the money to make more.
With this loan, Senora Luz could buy more raw foodstuffs and could offer her customers more foods, and have more income to give a good education to her children, and have a better life.
Luz Maria is married and has 4 children. They live in a very simple house in a small town named Cuajinicuilapa, in Guerreo.
In areas where the poor live alongside the more affluent, businesses in the service sector can be very successful. Services include flower cultivation, tailoring/sewing, transportation, repair work, beauty salons and barber shops, and restaurants. Loans are needed to begin, expand, or sustain business with tools and supplies. Loans given to entrepreneurs in the service sector account for around 7% of our loans.

Residents of the community of Cuajinicuilapa are primarily a mix of native Mexicans and Africans, who originally arrived with the Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes. The region’s close proximity to the coast enables residents to participate in a wide range of economic activities, including commerce, agriculture, and fishing.

Our field staff has received updated training regarding the importance of prompt reporting back to donors, and you should be receiving an update soon.
Please let me assure you that what happened in this case is not typical of World Vision or Micro.

Mrs. Luz used her loan to buy ingredients to cook quesadillas, enchiladas, and other mexican food. Every day she works very hard to provide a better life for her children. With the profits she earned from her business, she was able to cover the school expenses of her children. She would like to thank the people of World Vision for her loan and hopes that you can try her cooking some day!
