This group was created in 2018 when the banc villageois was established. The group is made up of six women from the same area. They get along well and share perfect social cohesion. They work mainly in small-scale commerce.
Rocky, who is on the right in the photo with her hand raised, is the group's representative. She is married, 49 years old, and a mother of four children, including two daughters. With her loan, she plans to buy cosmetic products in the large towns to resell in her area.
The profits she makes will serve to strengthen her business, help her husband with the family expenses, and increase her savings.
In this group: Rocky, Anta, Diarra, Fatou, Bouba, Yama
