A loan helped a member to buy sheep and cattle.


08-Sare Alkaly Group's story

The Sare Alkaly Group was founded in 2011 by village women who work in petty trade and share a strong sense of solidarity. Madame Maimouna, raising her hand in the photo, is the group's representative. She is 37 years old, married and has 5 children.

With this loan, she plans to buy sheep and cattle that she will fatten up to resell, as well as bags of feed. She will use her earnings to buy more animals and to support her family.

In this group: Ile , Maimouna
