Entrepreneur Profile
Anabel Suarez Suarez is married and has three children. The two youngest ones (ages 17 and 13) still live with her. She lives in the beautiful area of Zitacuaro, Michoacán in Mexico. She works as a seamstress and a cook. She learned the seamstress trade from her mother thirty years ago and likes to make traditional dresses for school events. She also has a very small stall where she sells traditional Mexican snack food.
One month ago she started-up a business downtown. She would like a loan to remodel the space that she bought so that she is able to put both a small restaurant and her seamstress shop in the same place.
Anabel provides her husband with a lot of financial support. She wants to contribute financially to the education of their children so that one day they will be able to have a career.
Anabel thanks you for your support.

Entrepreneur Location
Local Community
Crecencio Morales is a mountainous community that is home to an indigenous population of approximately 8,000. Elder members of the population still speak the Mazahua indigenous languages and weave traditional clothing.
Residents of Crecencio Morales live in poverty, depending primarily on agriculture, commerce, and the production of artisan goods for income. Most homes are made of wood and have only two rooms with dirt floors. Families cook their meals on wood stoves, as gas and electricity are limited. Few residents have access to toilets or running water; most use outhouses and fetch water from community wells.
In Crecencio Morales, World Vision is providing families with business training; helping farmers increase agricultural production and incomes; attending to the health needs of malnourished children; increasing access to safe water through the installation of water tanks; and providing tutoring and recreational opportunities.
