Expanding a Restaurant while Feeding the “Poor”

Thanks to 3 loans from OI DR, Ana Maria Ramirez (single mother of two -6 and 2 years old) has been able to grow her restaurant buiness and triple her profits.

 She used the latest loan to buy a freezer, blender and a radio for the restaurant facilities. She dreams of expanding the current space to start a second business on the side (a fruit stand).  Ana Maria feels that God has blessed her with talents and success, so she feels the need to contribute back to her community by feeding those less fortunate. She provides free food to poor people in her community.
