Jixon Simon's story

Jixon, 24, is an honest, responsible, hardworking young man who is in a relationship with the mother of his two children who attend the community school which is very far so they travel there ever day by motorcycle.

Being a farmer Jixon barely has a basic education and he wants something different for his children so his plan is to work tirelessly to give them a better future.

Jixon groes cocoa which he delivers to his customers either as pulp or dried. His partner helps with the job and is responsible for spreading the cocoa seeds for drying.

Jixon is applying for a loan to buy an irrigation system and farm supplies to expand his cocoa crop and earn more income for the economic stability of his family.
