Rubén was born on 11 March, 1986 in Santa Cruz in the province of La Guardia. He and his father are both farmers and work together on his father's plot of land. Rubén is married to Sandra and they have a young son.
In addition to his farming work, Rubén also cuts wood for carpenters. He also has a passenger car and provides transportation services on Saturdays and Sundays, which are his days off.
Rubén will use this loan to pay for repairs and maintenance on his car, which he also uses to transport his products to the local market. He is a very hard-working young many and his goal is to be able to buy his own land to farm. He is thankful to the institution for the support he has received.
