Serving Her Community with Her Small Business

Marissa just received her third cycle loan! She has been part of the Honor Microfinance Program since 2019 and has been serving her community with her sari-sari (small convenience store) business.

  

Before, her store was only set up inside of her home, but with the help of her microloan, she was able to build a separate space in front of their house. Marissa shares how she witnessed the effect of the continuous lockdowns in her community as more people are losing their source of income. She is grateful that because her business provides basic needs, she can still operate despite the lockdowns. She continues to persevere to provide for her two children, and we are determined to help her in her journey!
