Gilson's story
Gilson is 56 years old, is single, and lives in the city of São Paulo.
He started working young, as his parents worked at a market and he helped them. With the passage of time, his parents died and he had to work by himself. He started selling butter cookies at the markets. He was able to buy a house with his income, and now he does markets in São Paulo. He is happy with his business.
At the moment he needs to put a new roof on his house, as it is cracked and leaking inside his house. He will use the loan to buy materials for renovations like wood, shingles, screws, gutters and tiles.
Gilson would like to thank the investors for this opportunity.
