M. Sugiono

Sugiono collects and recycles used items. Everyday, he walks around with a cart to look for and buy used items, which are then sold to a recycling hub. He has to meet his household needs and pays for his children's school tuitions. Sugiono is diligent and full of determination despite his small profit. He really hopes that he is given this loan, which he will use to increase his business capital. He has 3 children, two of whom are in middle school and vocational school. He rents a room on Patih Jelantik Street with his family. His room is decent, although its roof is only made of zinc plates and its floor of rough cement.

Sugiono sehari-harinya bekerja sebagai pengumpul barang-barang bekas dan rongsokan. Setiap harinya dia harus berjalan keliling untuk mencari dan membeli barang-barang bekas yang kemudian dijual kembali ke tempat pengeumpulan rongsokan. Sarana yang dipakai hanya gerobak dan sepeda dayung. Selain harus memenuhi kebutuhan rumah tangganya, dia juga harus menyekolahkan kedua anaknya. Klien cukup ulet meskipun keuntungan yang didapat tidak terlalu banyak. Dia sangat mengharapkan diberi pinjaman untuk bisa dijadiakn tambahan modal usaha. Saat ini dia sudah memiliki 3 orang anak, 2 diantaranya sudah duduk dibangku SMP dan SMEA. Bertempat tinggal di Jl.Patih Jelantik, dia bersama keluarganya menyewa kamar dengan pembayaran bulanan. Kondisi kamarnya lumayan bagus, tetapi atapnya hanya dari seng dan lantainya dari semen kasar
