« Je suis barbier et coiffeur. Lorsque j’ai commencé mon activité, je n’avais qu’une chaise dans un local et je manquais de matériel. Je ne gagnais pas bien ma vie. Grâce à Louvain Coopération, après avoir étudié mes besoins, on m’a prêté 100 $. J’ai ainsi pu acheter le matériel qui me manquait et, chaque jour, je reçois 10 à 15 clients. J’ai pu former deux stagiaires et avoir accès à un micro-crédit. Aujourd’hui, je suis propriétaire de mon barber shop !»
