A loan helped to buy flour, sugar, rice, boxes of tuna, sardines, and other products.


Jefferson Oswaldo's story

Jefferson lives in the south of the city. He is a humble longshoreman who works in a grocery store in the mornings, and in the afternoons goes out selling basic products door-to-door.

This business helps him complement his income so he can support his humble household. He gives his children everything they need and wants them to have a good future.

Jefferson is requesting his first loan to buy flour, sugar, rice, boxes of tuna, sardines, and other basic products so he can improve sales and generate a better income.
