A loan helped to replace the seat covers, buy tires, and change shock absorbers, ball joints, and terminals.


Edison Roberto's story

Edison, age 44, lives with his wife and two children who still depend upon their parents because they are studying. His wife works in the public sector. For his part, Edison is the owner of a taxi that he drives. He has been providing this service for 12 years, taking orders and trips inside and outside the city.

The support of this loan will help to give maintenance to his vehicle, replacing the seat covers, buying tires, and changing shock absorbers, ball joints and terminals. In this way, he will be able to continue providing an excellent service with the kindness and respect that he always has.

Edison hopes that security in the country will improve, to reactivate tourism, to have more stability in his work, and be able to cover the costs of educating his children so that they can become professionals. This is the greatest desire of his heart.
