Mama's story

Mama is 49 years old and lives in the town of West Point. She lives with her partner who has his own business and has three children aged 27, 18 and 7. All three live at home with her -- the oldest works and the other two are attending school.

For 10 years Mama has been cooking food and selling donuts at the Waterside Market. Sometimes she doesn't have enough money to buy her ingredients wholesale and has to buy retail, which is much more expensive. She likes to talk with her customers and learned how to cook from her auntie a long time ago.

Mama has requested a loan to buy flour, oil, sugar, yeast and baking powder. In the future, she would like to have her own place at the market and build a house for her and her children.
