José Andrés Torres Silva

Andre always dreamt about marrying the woman with whom he fell deeply in love, but he needed to be able to offer her a future. He began to think about the possibilities available to him and he decided to take advantage and use his knowledge and experience with computers to open up an internet service business. Another benefit was that he was located across the street from a school. His business provides computer rental, battery charging and computer sales. Andre is grateful that this business provided him the means to overcome his expenses and he was able to get married.

Now, Andre believes that he should offer more computer related services to his clients, and so he's requesting a loan of $575 USD (to be paid in 6 months). With this loan Andre will be able to purchase new technical/computer accessories like: a scanner, a web camera, and other items which will make his services more attractive to his clients. With your help Andre's business will continue to grow and one day he will be able to start a family.
