Genelita owns a small general store known as a “sari-sari” store. She plans to invest her loan in her store so that she may attract more customers and produce more sales.
Genelita will use her profits to provide for her family, pay for medical expenses, and give a portion back to her church.
She is 36-years-old and lives with her family in Sogod, Cebu.
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.

Genelita used the loan to purchase more household essentials that her customers buy daily. Now that she has more items to offer, she has noticed a gradual increase of sales. This inspires her to plan more business improvements.
Genelita has made her loan payments on time.
With the use of this loan Genelita was able to renovate her store. She is encouraged and determined to make the most of her business opportunities.
Genelita's loan is now fully repaid. Thank you, donors, for giving Genelita this hope for the future.
