A loan helped to invest in fixing up the pigeon cages.


Fausto Hernan's story

At 56 years old, Fausto Hernán is a model of perseverance. He lives in Medellín, is the father of two children, and although he is single, has worked tirelessly to offer them a better future.

Fausto works raising pigeons, labor he has done with dedication for years. His commitment to the wellbeing of his birds and the quality of his work have brought him to earn the trust of his customers.

However, to continue growing, he needs to improve the condition of the cages where he keeps them, as the ones he currently has are deteriorated and he needs to better keep the birds.

With the loan he requests, Fausto will be able to reorganize his workspace, better meet the demand, and strengthen his family's finances.

This boost not only represents an improvement to the business, but also an opportunity to achieve the stability he has sought so much.
