A loan helped to buy handbags, women's clothes and boy's pants.


Diarra's story

This banc villageois, created in May 2009, brings together women in solidarity, who run businesses as the occupation. Diarra in the photo is 65 years old. She is a widow, the mother of nine children, and she has two other children in her care. She has been in business for a very long time. With her new loan, she counts on buying handbags, women’s clothing, and young boy’s pants. She has two years of experience in this new field and that has allowed her to buy a armoire [wardrobe]. The profits from this new loan will be used for laying down tiles in her house.
