From a young age, Mr. Donald Benavides has devoted himself to the business of breeding cattle and agriculture, which supports his modest family. They live in the municipality of Obraje, which is in the city of Chinandega in Nicaragua.



A problem that Donald encounters is the lack of electric energy in his area since it is very far from the city. For this reason, he uses candles in the evenings but they only light up a small part of his home. To fix this situation, Donald has borrowed loans from Ceprodel to buy a solar panel. In this way, he can light up his home and have access to television for his family.



His greatest need is to pay off the debt used to buy a solar panel so he can continue to sustain his home and improve the standard of living for him and his family.

Translated from Spanish by Geraldine Kim, Kiva Translator.




El caballero Donald Benavides desde muy niño se dedica al negocio de la ganaderia agricultura siendo este su negocio con el que mantiene a su humilde familia que habita en el municipio el Obraje de la ciudad de Chinandega en Nicaragua.


Una problemática que atraviesa Donald es que en su localidad no existe energía eléctrica por estar muy lejos de la ciudad y por tal razón debe de alumbrarse por las noches con candelas que solamente iluminan una pequeña parte del hogar. Para erradicar esta situación, el señor Donald ha adquirido préstamos en Ceprodel para la adquisición de un panel solar y de esta manera poder alumbrar su hogar y tener acceso a un televisor para la familia.



Su mayor necesidad hoy en día es la urgencia de cancelar la deuda de este panel solar para así poder continuar manteniendo su hogar y mejorando su nivel de vida y el de los suyos.
