Yaneth from Colombia

$275 to buy supplies, like corn and meat, to make more arepas to sell.

Yaneth is 50 years old and lives in the municipality of Carepa. She’s a single mother, who has 3 children, whom she loves very much. Raising them has been very challenging, but it also has made her a strong, confident, and capable woman, who would do anything for her family. Being head of a family has taught her a lot. One of the most important things is to be independent. That’s the reason why she decided to start an arepa business (a traditional Colombian food, which is like a tortilla made of corn). Thanks to her commitment and hard work, now her family has a better quality of life. She lives in a town very affected by the war, so her business means a lot to her since it’s the opportunity she has to give to her family a good future. She’s asking for a loan to buy supplies, like corn and meat, to make more arepas to sell.
