A loan helped to buy more seafood in order to continue selling.


Abel's story

Abel is 53 years old. He is single and lives with his mother.

Abel works buying and selling seafood. He has over three year's experience. He learned this job thanks to a friend. He sells as a street vendor from his vehicle, as shown in the photo. He works from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Aben needs a loan to buy more seafood in order to continue selling. His dream is to make more income, and to give the best to his mother.
