Sabougnouma 1 is composed of 10 married women who average 41 years of age and 3 children. Most of them live in polygamous families in Djambougou, one of the villages in the rural city of Tingolé, Fana subprefecture, 2nd administrative region of Mali.


They collaborate with Kiva's partner, the microfinance organization Soro Yiriwaso, in order to realize their rainy season activities. They mainly grow peanuts and millet. They are seeking their third loan from Soro Yiriwaso, and the previous loans ended without problems. With this new loan, they intend to buy seeds, fertilizers, small materials, and to pay for the cost of labour and hoeing of 17.5 hectares. After the harvest, the production is sold at the following markets : Marka-Coungo, Fana and Tingolé, to a clientele comprising both men and women.


They intend to turn an average profit of XOF 40'000 (ca US$ 85) per campaign, to be used to bolster their businesses.
