Mrs. Cirila Antonia sells tamales. She invested her loan through the purchase of ingredients for the preparation of the tamales, such as tomatoes, garlic, salt, oil, maize, leaves, condiments, and a variety of chilies.
With the loan she has been able to provide a better quality of service to her clients, and has increased her sales and profits. She's investing her profits into the purchase of more ingredients to continue making the tamales.
Mrs. Cirila is trying to make her loan payments on time because she wants to continue counting on World Vision's support. She's grateful because thanks to this help, she has been able to get ahead with her family.
Cirila says that during the rainy season, sales decrease and she can't go out to sell. This is detrimental to her financial situation since this is her only source of income. There have been times when her husband helps her to make the payments.
Mrs. Cirila is very grateful for the support that World Vision is giving her. With this help she has been able to have her own business, and her life and her family's lives have changed.

She is very happy since her life has changed so much after she was given the loan. Her idea is to invest her profits into buying chickens that she can raise herself, and sell them later.
Mrs. Cirila paid her loan in full, and was always punctual making her payments. She wants to continue counting with the support of more loans to keep on investing into her business.
She is grateful to World Vision because with the help that they have provided, her business has grown and she and her family have benefited greatly.
Her dream is to have an eatery. This way she won't have to go out of her house to sell door-to-home every day, since this is very exhausting. She also wants to continue helping her children with their studies so they'll have a better future.
