Jesús is 48 years old and lives alone as he migrated from the city of Arequipa 3 years ago. He has worked hard since his arrival in Puno, only having worked and worked in search of a better future. So one year ago he decided to provide taxi service to meet his expenses. Jesús enjoys the work, as it is always different and he can visit different places while transporting customers. Fortunately for Jesús, he is sought after as customers prefer his service, so therefore he wants to continue providing and improving his service to obtain greater profit. This is Jesús’ first loan with Microfinanzas Prisma. With the money he will repair his car to provide better service.

Ofrece un mejor servicio su carro.
 
Entrepreneur: Jesús
Location: Juliaca, Peru

Gracias al crédito que solicitó Jesús, pudo invertir en la reparación de su carro y acondicionarlo mejor para el uso diario. De esa manera ofrece un mejor servicio a sus clientes, ya que ahora trabaja con tranquilidad y seguridad en su taxi y eso le beneficia en su economía. Jesús agradece a todas las personas que dieron el préstamo ya que sin ella no hubiera podido arreglar su carro, además considera que la labor que realiza su banco comunal es muy positiva ya que los miembros que la conforma son muy solidarios y siempre le apoyan y asesoran sobre su trabajo. En el futuro dese tener una empresa de taxis y para ello se dedicara de lleno a su trabajo hasta alcanzar sus objetivos.
