Jesus Alberto is 46 years old. He is married and has one child who is 9 years old. He does not have relatives abroad.
Jesus works informally as a construction foreman. For 26 years he has worked in his job, which he learned from a relative and with which he generates income to help with the household responsibilities.
However, this is not sufficient to improve his home, because of which he is requesting a loan to buy sheet metal and purlins. With this investment, he hopes to improve his house’s roof, thus avoiding damage from the winter season and being able to offer his family a decent and safe home.
Jesus, Néstor, Esmeralda, and Mario, make up the solidarity group, “CEREZO,” being responsible and enterprising people who seek the same goal of getting ahead.
In this group: Jesus Alberto, Nestor Alberto, Esmeralda Lizeth, Mario Ernesto
