Seo Ngaraf Group's story

The group is represented by Maimouna, the woman with her hand raised on the far right. The group was created on December 21, 2015 and is made up of women who reside in the same community and have commerce as their main business. The representative is very active earning a living selling vegetables and raising sheep. She has gained a lot of experience in this work as she has done it for years. The loan she has received will be used to buy vegetables to strengthen her business as well as sheep that she will resell after fattening them. She gets her stock in the weekly markets and resell the vegetables in her community and the sheep at the animal markets. The earnings she obtains from her sales will allow her to contribute to the family expenses as she is a widow and if possible add to her working capital.
