Don Arly lives in the Sabana Grande district. He is 34 years old. Thanks to much effort, he succeeded in setting up his own business, a textile factory, which helps both him and his wife, since she is a seamstress. They have three children, who are in school. Señor Arly is now working as an industrial mechanic because sales are low and there is little income. For this reason, he decided to return to work to balance the family expenses and to be able to continue to organize himself to maintain their little business.
His house is made of concrete but it is still lacking a plaster finish, a floor, and painting. But he wants this loan to begin making the porch, to be more comfortable and have more shade. He will buy stones, sand, cement, iron, and zinc to begin the work. His plan is to be able to continue investing in his business to have better profits.
