Madame Justine is a client of the Hekima microfinance institution and oversees the Tusaidiane banque villageoise. She is married, 44 years old, and the mother of 4 children (3 of which are in school). Her partner is a dressmaker.
She is also a dressmaker and she started this business 5 years ago with funding received from her husband. Later, she joined the Hekima program to support her business, which she was steadily growing.
With this new loan, she will stock up on 2 rolls of fabric, which will strengthen her starting capital. The challenge in her business is linked to a lack of customers.
She would like for her children to continue their education and would like to be able to feed her family. Lastly, she wants to thank Hekima and its partners for the support they provide to small business owners in the context of the COVID-19 global crisis.
