And yet another repayment notice! The amount that was loaned to Betty Gloria Lopez Zavaleta is extremely low ($425.00), and as she’ll be repaying this in just 5 months that pretty much means she’s repayed 20% of her loan already. Keep it up, Betty!

She is 59 years old and has 7 kids; 5 of whom are adults, the other two depend on her. She is married and her husband is a bricklayer.
