When Linda owned a variety store, she often worried about her four children’s future. She and her husband could barely afford to feed the children, let alone plan for their future. Loans from CCT, HOPE’s partner in the Philippines, enabled Linda to open a restaurant. As the restaurant’s success grew, Linda was able to open additional restaurants – four in total. Linda and her husband now employ 19 others. They dream of sending all four of their children to college.
