Com as notícias actualizadas sobre o último empréstimo, o qual fiquei a saber estar pago desde 15 de Agosto, é altura de mais um pequeníssimo contributo, neste caso para Rogelio, cidadão da Bolívia.
“Rogelio makes jewelry for private sales and for sale to jewelry stores. With his earnings he supports his family. His wife also works in making jewelry. The previous loan was used to build a back wall to their house. The room was previously exposed and they ran the risk of being attacked or robbed. He has been a member of Impro (Kiva Field Partner) and he has had 5 previous loans, all of which have been repaid. The loan he requests is to start the construction of two other bedrooms in their house, to provide greater comfort to their family. He is very grateful for the loan he is granted.”
