Juan Jose's story

Juan is a soldier who works in his family business to earn an income that he uses to support his family. With dedication and hard work he’s kept his workshop going but during the winter, it suffers from water leaks that affect the area where he works and this puts his tools and materials at risk.

To solve the problem, Juan has asked for a loan to buy sheets of zinc, cement, sand and other materials to repair the roof and fix leaks in his workshop. This investment’ll let him work in a safer and more appropriate area. It’ll protect his tools and let him continue working quietly. With these improvements, he hopes to boost his output and continue ensuring his family’s well-being.
