Damani Group's story

Mrs. Regine is a client of Hekima and president of the group DAMANI. She is 52 years old and married with ten school-educated children. Her husband is a driver.

Regine sells various goods. She started this activity 20 year ago with funding supplied by her husband. She later joined Hekima to help sustain her business, which has continued to grow steadily. She will use this new loan to buy hair extensions, rice, flour, oil, detergent and sugar to bolster her stock. Her activity's challenge is outstanding debts.

She wants to support her children's education and to be able to feed her family.

She wishes to thank Hekima and its partners for helping non-bankable business owners during the Covid-19 global pandemic.
