A loan helped a member to buy peanuts and fertiliser to cultivate the land.


Tc Amy Group's story

This group, created in June 2019, is composed of women who live in the same area. They are united by bonds of kinship and close friendship, and their main areas of work are agriculture and livestock. They are at their third loan.

Amy is the group's representative; she is standing at the right of the photo with her hand raised. She is married and mother of four children including two boys, and she works in agriculture.

With this loan, she plans to buy peanuts and fertiliser to grow food. The profits from her sales will enable her to meet her family's needs and to buy sheep to raise.

In this group: Amy , Fatou, Dieynaba, Amine, Amy Adame, Seye Bassine, Fatou Seye, Amine, Seynabou, Tothie , Coumba
