Today I get to meet Superaction Group. This is a group of women in Totonicapan, Guatemala who make sweatshirt, make handicrafts from clay, weave sheets, raise animals and run stores. The lady who founded it and is in charge of the group is named Gregoria Mercedes. She is only 20 years old and is single. She went to school from age seven to fourteen, which is called 'education primaria'. She has six years experience, so that means right after graduating 'education primaria' she started working. She makes sweatshirts and with the money I lent her she is going to improve her sweatshirt production. She hope that in the future she will have a large business and will be able to hire workers, I hope so too.
