A loan helped a member to buy seeds and fertilizer.


05-Rokhy Group's story

This group of women was created in July of this year. They live in the same area and have very strong relationships. Their principal business is agriculture. Rokhy, the group representative, is 59 years old, married, and a mother of eight, five of whom are boys. She is a peanut farmer. With this loan, she plans to buy peanut seeds and sacks of fertilizer, and after the harvest, she is going to sell her product at the local market for a good price hoping to make better revenues. The profits earned will allow her to support her business and meet the needs of her family.

In this group: Rokhy , Sokhna, Adji Coumba, Khady, Thiebo, Khady, Ndeye Rokhy , Oumy, Yassine , Djiwano
