Marvin Ezequiel's story

Marvin attended school up to sixth grade. He is in a relationship and lives with his spouse and his children.

Marvin works in construction. He has done this for seven years; he learned from his father. From his house to his work place, he travels 9 kilometers on a motorcycle. His work hours are 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Monday to Saturday.

Marvin will use the loan to buy tools such as a polisher, a welder, and a circular saw, to be prepared and do better work. With this, he will be able to improve his income for his family.

Marvin dreams of having sufficient tools and having his own construction business, to increase his income and so to obtain better survival for himself and his family.
