The Partners

Below are some FINCA partners (’clients’ in FINCA terminology) and their perspectives about their new microcredit loans:

Esperanza Suarez explained her excitement about her new microcredit loan and how she expects it to help her: “Clearly I’m very excited about this opportunity; I applied for this loan because it’s going to help me, little by little. I am going to invest the total amount of this loan in my business and then I’m going to look at my options for a much larger loan after.”

Susana Venador Hernandez, a FINCA client from Colonia El Verdun, responded to my question about “how has this loan affected your life over the past three months?” She answered “my family, we’re not lacking food or clothes anymore.”

Norma Estela Pavon Gonzalez, of colonia Puerto Principe, explained how her microloan transformed her life: “We were all really and excited for this loan at the beginning. This loan has permitted us to buy more, sell more, and grow more. This loan truly is an aid that has helped all of us.”

Nelly Maria Solano Ortega, of Colonia Puerto Prinicpe, is pictured above. She took her C$5,000 loan and went to the capital, Managua, and bought new clothes which she was taking to a more remote town to sell her new goods.
