Roberto's story
Roberto is 70 years old, did not have the opportunity to go to school, is married, and his children no longer depend on him.
Roberto has worked growing and selling squash for 11 years and learned it from his father. He walks from his house to get to the land he works and his work schedule is from 8:00 am to 11:00 am. Previously, he worked as an assistant mason.
He needs the loan to purchase fertilizers and herbicides to apply them to his crop of squash for later sale.
Roberto wants to continue working and to have a better quality of life.
