Omar De Jesus's story
Omar has all the energy he needs to work and to continue making a living.
Several years ago, through a business transporting people aboard a motorcycle-taxi, he found a way of surviving and supporting himself.
Omar lives in the town of Puerto Berrio and is single.
Now, Omar wants to increase his revenue and for this reason, he is seeking a loan to buy tyres needed to improve the condition of his motorcycle. He also needs to pay for his motorcycle insurance and yearly revision in order to have these documents up-to-date, allowing him to continue providing a safe and secure service.
This way, Omar will be able to secure more financial stability and continue to pay for some personal expenses. He also want to be able to support himself through this job, given that it has been difficult to find work and for this reason, he has found this source of income.
