Joyce Mganga, age 25, is married with two children, ages 7 and 4. Joyce has a food business, which she started in 2005. She works daily from 9am until 6.30pm and is able to earn a monthly profit of around $323.


This will be Joyce’s second loan from Tujijenge Tanzania. She used the previous loan to open a salon and buy a sack of powdered soap (which she sells door to door), and repaid the loan successfully. She wants a new loan to improve her salon.


Joyce will share this loan with her loan group, Mzaituni, which totals 18 members. The members of the group hold each other accountable in paying back their loans. In the picture, Joyce is first from the left in the front row.

She is really doing wonders in business!
 
Entrepreneur: Mzaituni Group
Location: Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania

Greetings from Tanzania! Thank you for supporting Joyce Mganga and Nzaituni Group with a loan. With the loan Joyce received, she opened a beauty salon, bought a suck of soap for sale and she is doing very well. With the new businesses her monthly profit rose from $323 to about $350! She used the profits to pay for school fees and household expenses. Joyce and the Mzaituni Group are very grateful for the loan and are thankful to everyone who has supported them.
