Eleuterio

Eleuterio is 60 years old, he lives with his wife who supports him with all his decisions and objectives. They own the house where they live, thanks to hard work in their youth.

For the past 8 years he has had a 50 meter tall tank from which he supplies more than 100 families in the area with water. Additionally he works as a building contractor and due to his good work he is hired by many people. What Eleuterio likes about his jobs is that he feels active and useful to society as well as satisfied with his work because it generates the necessary income to live and move ahead. For the future he wants to build another tank on land he owns two hours away from his home in order to distribute water to people that need it.

He has had 3 loans with MFP and he likes to work with his community bank as his partners are responsible and above all he has earned their trust. With the requested money he will buy tubes to supply 50 people, who need this useful element on a daily basis, with water.
