Lucia lives in the Dominican Republic and used a micro loan to sell food in her small community. Because the town in which she lives thrives off of the sugar harvesting industry, Lucia sells her food mostly to the men that work in the sugar cane fields.
Lucia uses the money she makes off of selling food to support her two children that she loves dearly. Thanks to your donation Thomas, Lucia is able to receive a Pap exam for the first time!
She feels blessed with the opportunity to check for cervical cancer, in hopes of preventing it before it begins! Thomas, your donation of $25 has made it possible for Lucia to stay informed, and has given her the opportunity to be a healthy mother to her two children. She is eternally grateful for your generosity!
Thanks again Thomas!
