A loan helped to buy a cooker and supplies like cooking oil, vegetables, and other items for his business of making and selling traditional snacks.


Rafael Miguel Antonio's story

Rafael, age 36, went to school through high school. He is married, and he has two children who are dependent upon him.

Rafael devotes himself to making and selling traditional snacks. He undertook this work three years ago. With motivation from his wife he managed to do this. His work schedule is from 9:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m.

He will use the loan to buy a cooker and supplies like cooking oil, vegetables, and other items for his business of making and selling traditional snacks.

Rafael dreams of having his own house.
