Let's Keep On Supporting !

Through this post I would like to share with you that here in Chimbote, Perú there is a Catholic parish called "Our Lady Of Perpetual Help" ("Nuestra Señora del Perpetuo Socorro") whose priest is the father Jack Davis and it is located in a poor neighborhood called La Victoria.

Most of residents of "La Victoria" and neighborhoods surrounding father Jack's parish tenderly call him "father little John" and love him so much. He is very concern about living conditions of residents, specially of the poorest. In his life effort for improving living conditions of his neighbors he did his best to found a non-profit organization: "The Friends" ("Los Amigos"), with the help of his American and Peruvian friends, for the benefit of the poor.

This organization, to more effectively serve the Peruvians in a self-sustained way, specially poor people living in Chimbote, canalize its support efforts through CHOI by means of one of its programs called Micro-Lending whose coordinator is Mr. Orlando Bermúdez García. This program provides micro loans to people with limited economic resources wanting starting or sustain a small business using their assets for this. Here is some information about micro loans given by Micro-Lending Program in May.
