Loan #25: Jesus Alejandro Rodriguez (Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico)

I usually like to support two loans at a time... so after contributing to Mariam in Sierra Leone... this loan was for so little, the payback period is short, and loans to Mexico seem to get to the person quickly... so Jesus' cobbler (shoe repair) business seemed like a really good choice!

Kiva.org - Jesus Alejandro Rodriguez

Jesús Alejandro is married and lives in Monterrey, Nuevo León. His brother-in-law had a small shoe business where Jesús learned how to repair shoes. He was afterwards left unemployed and decided to begin his own business providing this service. His work was increasingly recognized and he enlarged his number of clients thanks to the pleasure he takes doing this job and his willingness to improve his family’s situation.

To keep developing his affair, Jesús needs a $ 150 credit that he will use to buy tools he needs to improve the quality of his work. He promises to give back this money within 3 months. It is a good moment to help someone who needs it, Jesús will be very grateful to you to be given an opportunity to increase and improve his small business. (7/24/07)
