Carlos Luis Alvarado Garcia

Mr. Carlos Luís Alvarado lives with his wife and four children. He works as a waiter in a restaurant in the city. The income he receives for this work is not very high, what helps his family economically are the tips that his customers leave him. Over the years Carols has built an inheritance for his family with his own savings. First he bought a plot of land and began farming it. Now he has stopped work because he is lacking materials and money to pay the laborers so he is asking us for a loan to complete his project.
