Kandiadiou Group's story
This group was created in August 2006 during the inauguration of its banc villageois. The women are dynamic and are active in the retail business. Mrs. Damba, with her hand raised in the photo, represents the group. She is 54 years old, a widow, and has 7 children. She is also caring for two of her brother's children. She buys shoes and clothes in Dakar, then resells them at retail prices. With her new loan, she plans to strengthen her business. With the profits, she plans to cover the family expenses because her children have recently lost their father.
