Francisco Alberto Chávez Mejía

Francisco, at 33 years old, is a professional painter with 19 years of experience. Today he lives in the San Judas neighborhood, is married, and has three children in primary school. His wife works in sales and inthis way supports Francisco wtih the household expenses. With the loan he will make improvements to his home, putting up two walls and he will change the roof as it is in poor codition and he wants to put new zinc in order to have a safer home for his family. It has been difficult for him to finish his home and what he longs for is being able to have a worthy home for his family.
