A loan helped to cover his higher education costs.


Angel Manuel's story

Ángel Manuel is a student in Information Networking. He is requesting a loan to be able to cover his education expenses.

This is his story: Hello, my name is Ángel Manuel and I am 19 years old. I was born in the city of Santo Domingo and I was raised in the beautiful province of El Seibo, in the east of my country.

My father passed away when I was five years old and my mother lives overseas. I am practically alone in this country. I live with my aunt. I have a younger sister, who is eight years old, and two foster brothers who have lived always lived with me. I am not married yet and I do not have children.

My goals are to graduate from this prestigious institution with sound knowledge in order to get a good job, and help my aunt and my low-income relatives. They have always helped me stand firm during my studies despite insecurity.

The degree that I am studying is Information Networking at the Technological Institute of the Americas (ITLA). I want to study this degree because I have been a technology fan every since I have had conscience and reason. In addition, this is a career that can provide me with a lot of money, and with it I can achieve everything that I set myself for the future.

My studies started on September 1, 2015. The subjects that I have taken so far are: Computer Basics, Introduction to Mathematics, English, Ethics I, Physical Education, Dominican History and Spanish Writing. So far, I have enjoyed all these subjects, especially Physical Education and English. I am standing out more in these two subjects, as I am a sports and language lover.

After finishing my degree, I intend to continue studying other degrees such as Telematics, in order to have much more knowledge than required.

I need this loan, as it will be of great help for my family and me. If we don’t receive the loan, we would be forced to pay for my degree, so much so I would have to stop my degree until I have enough money to continue paying for it.

This loan would completely change my life as it would be like receiving God's help through you.
