Edgar is 40 years old with three children. Because of irreparable differences, he had to end his marriage and move away from his children, but although he doesn’t live with them, he continues to dedicate his efforts to their future. Without doubt he tells them to be good and responsible every time they are near him. Years ago, Edgar started his work as a motorcycle taxi driver, and today after a lot of work, he is the proud owner of his own motorcycle taxi. At the same time, he dedicates himself to raising corn, yucca, and bananas, products which he takes to sell at the market in his area. Edgar’s vehicle has presented mechanical faults and the loan which he is asking you for is to buy the parts and pay the mechanic in charge of the repairs. This father needs your support to continue in his daily work, which is his sustenance.
