Jose Santos's story

He is requesting a loan because his father began having problems with his vision. His father was examined and the diagnosis indicated that he needs to have cataract surgery. Unfortunately, his father does not have the resources to cover this expense, so Jose Santos wants to help him by requesting a loan. The surgery will improve his father’s quality of life.
