Project Report | Jun 20, 2017
Candelaria wants to thank you for your support

By Ana Milena Ordosgoitia | Project Leader

Dear donors,

Candelaria, one of the entrepreneurs you supported, wants to thank you for your donations and to tell you how you helped her made her dream come true and what are her plans moving forward.

Please watch the following video (Translation below):

https://youtu.be/X9TYwKq1Jxc

"Hi! I am Candelaria. I am 30 years old and I live in Santa Ana. I am now going to tell you my story.

When I was a little girl I really enjoyed hand sewing, pasting buttons and sewing clothes to my neighbors.

I studied clothing at the National Learning Institution for a year and a half.

Someone gave me a small sewing machine so I started sewing small things because with the machine I could not sew big things.

I went to a Foundation that was lending money and I asked them for a loan. They gave me the credit I asked for so I bought this beautiful sewing machine and now I can sew uniforms, jeans etc.

I want to thank all the people who donated. I thank you from my soul because you made my dream come true.

I now want to ask for a new loan to buy another machine so that I can improve my product’s quality.

Thank you!"
