A loan helped to purchase large frying pans, spoons and construction materials.


Carlos Alberto's story

Carlos is 35 years old, is in a relationship and is a father to three children. Carlos started working a while ago in a business where he sold aluminum. As a result of the crises the country was going through, he had to migrate to another nation to look for better working conditions. Today, he does the same work he started in his home country.

He is visiting the MiCrédito office to request a loan from Kiva to purchase frying pans, spoons and construction supplies to finish building his home and have it be more comfortable. His goal is to have an established shop to be able to continue sending remittances to his family.
