Like many people here in Peru, my business has suffered because of COVID-19. Now I am finding myself in debt. I am independent and a hard worker so asking for help is hard for me but I am doing it for my family. Due to the disorganization of the government and corruption, I never got any help. For some reason people with money got help and people in need got left behind.

I need $6,000 USD to save my business and my home. My mother and cousin are employed through me and depend on my business as their only source of income. My wife Jennifer is a labor and delivery nurse. Thankfully she has been working, and she works very hard, but her income is not enough to support the whole family.

The only way to get this money is by selling my guinea pig farm. But If I sell my farm, I have to start again from zero and probably will not be able to afford to build it back to what it is, especially because the pandemic is still affecting my country and our economy. I currently have about 160 guinea pigs and am so close to my original goal of 200.

Many of you who know me and are watching this video know how I have always fought for my dreams. My cuy/guinea pig business is one of my dreams. With your support you will be helping many people like my little Michaella, my wife and also my mom and my cousin to continue having a job. They are employed through me.Thank you so much for listening to my story. Any help will be a huge support for me. In exchange, if you ever take the chance to come visit the jungle of Peru, you have a home with me and my family. I will show you around the cuy farm and the beautiful wonders of my country. I also plan to create a project, once I”m back on my feet, in which I will donate some of my cuy meat to children in need in my area (cuy has very nutritious properties that are good for people with anemia or cancer). Please let me know if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to get back to you soon.

With love, Nilson and my family. God Bless You. I hope you are all safe wherever you are.

PS. Any of you who can donate and if when you come to visit Peru, come and visit me, I can offer you 4 days of room for free. Also, you will learn more about me and my family, you will learn more about my Cuys farm. Just email me and I will keep it in mind.

Rewards

I will donate a nutritious cuy meal to a person in need
