Mrs. Hilda González Gómez passed away on February 13th at the age of 56. She had also acquired Life Insurance for $57 pesos. She left her husband, Mr. Manuel Ortega Flores, as sole beneficiary. He comments:

“I did not believe in insurance. Just a few days before she died, my wife asked me if she should buy the insurance. I said that the cost was very low and there was nothing to lose. Insurance is money that we first see as an expense, but when you lose a family member and you have to confront the costs, the $30 thousand pesos covered by this insurance are a great help.”

"I am very grateful to Compartamos, the Insurance program DOES work, and I want to tell all its clients that it is sad to have to suffer the loss of a loved one in order to prove it.”

Our deepest condolences to Mr. Manuel Ortega Flores and his family for the loss of his wife.
