A loan helped to buy land to farm.


Juan's story

Thanks to the friendly hand that many good-hearted people around the world extend to others, many men are achieving their plans through the work they do every day. Juan is a father. Just last year he received a loan. He invested it in material such as cement, lime, sand and block. Thanks to this investment he was able to remodel his house and have a dignified roof for his lovely family.

Juan's dream is to continue generating income to feed, educate and dress his family. This motivated him to seek a loan this year to buy a plot of land. With it he will produce coffee, and seek customers both in and outside his community. Juan's hope is to better himself and create new businesses so that his income constantly increases.

This loan is special because:

It targets low-income borrowers who can't access typical microfinance loans.
