Loan #6: Edilberto Miranda Bellota -- As of February, 2011, Edilberto has fully paid back his loan!


Edilberto

Edilberto works as a taxi driver. His nickname amongst his family and friends is "el alcalde" ("mayor" in Spanish) because he is so popular and well-known in his local community, San Jerónimo, just outside of Cusco. The smile you see in this picture is the one he wears on his face constantly. He has had some health issues with his stomach and had surgery twice over the past two years, which affected his ability to earn a living for a while. He would like a $1000 loan to help pay for health care costs, which he will pay back at $100 a month; he is driving his taxi again. This is our second medical loan (the first was to Marcelino for his little girl, below).
