Dan

Dan is 35 years old. He lives with his wife and his son in a house he owns. He offers internet access to the public. Because he is close to a school, most of his customers are children and young people who attend the school. He has had this business for two years: he manages and attends to his business alone. What he likes best about his work is interacting with the young people who ask for his help. The business is very profitable because he has loyal customers and his internet stations are always busy. In the future he wants to expand and buy more computers as he doesn't have enough for all the young people who need this service. This will be Dan's ninth loan with MFP. He also enjoys working with his community bank. He will use the loan to repair his computers as they need to be in good condition for daily use.

Dan tiene 35 años de edad, vive con su esposa y su hijo, la casa donde viven es propia. Él brinda servicios de cabinas públicas de Internet, a razón de encontrarse cerca de una Institución Educativa porque sus principales clientes son los niños y jóvenes colegiales. Esta actividad la realiza desde hace 2 años atrás, administra y atiende su negocio él solo. Lo que le gusta de su trabajo es que se relaciona con los jóvenes quienes le piden su apoyo para cualquier tema a tratar. Le es muy rentable porque ya cuenta con su fiel clientela y sus cabinas funcionan diariamente. Posteriormente quiere ampliar y comprarse más computadoras, ya que las que tiene no abastece a muchos jóvenes que necesitan de este servicio. Con este son 9 préstamos que Dan ha trabajado con MFP, además que le gusta trabajar con su banco comunal. El dinero que solicita es para mandar a reparar sus computadoras, ya que tienen que estar en buenas condiciones para su uso diario.
