Geretulde is a 38-year-old mother of two children aged 14 and 16 years old. Her husband is a construction worker, and for the past nine years, Geretulde has owned a grocery store.
Geretulde is the leader of the group called Abunzubumwe CB, which in English means “Let us come together.” Group members sell different items and own a variety of businesses.
Geretulde will use her loan to buy more donuts, bread, soft drinks and milk to sell within her community. With the profits from her sales, she hopes to be able to pay the school fees for her children, and also one day build a house for her family.
Geretulde is thankful for your support.
