Atalia was born in the city of Maputo. She is 41 years old, married, and has 2 children, ages 14 and 16. She attended school through the seventh grade when she dropped out due to pregnancy. At that time the government did not permit pregnant girls to continue attending school. She lives with her husband and children in their own home. They do not support anyone else.

She left the city of Maputo in 2000 to move to Boane to find better conditions and opportunities for business. She has had her own business since 1980. Besides her running her business (selling commodity goods) she also raises cattle and grows crops in the Umbeluzi river valley, in the Boane district.

In her business she sells rice, flour and drinks where she earns approximately 5.500,00 MT monthly. She uses the money to support her family and she manages to save money in her Barclays bank account. Her husband does not have formal employment and does odd jobs.

This is Atalia's first loan with Hluvuku-Adsema, in the amount of 10.000,00MT, to be used for the purchase and resale of commodity goods (rice, flour, etc.). She has previously had loans with a similar organization that operated in the district on an ambulatory basis. She decided not to continue with them for various reasons.

She plans to pay back the loan without incident in order to have access to future loans with the goal of growing her business, especially during the next holiday season.

Atalia nasceu na cidade Maputo, tem 41 anos de idade, casada e mãe de 2 filhos com 14 e 16 anos de idade. Fez 7 classe tendo parado devido à gravidez precoce numa altura em que o governo não permitia que uma aluna grávida continuasse a estudar. Vive com o marido e filhos na casa própria. Não sustenta mais ninguém.

Saiu da cidade de maputo no ano 2000 para boane a procura de melhores condições e oportunidades de negocio. Vem fazendo negocio desde o remoto ano de 1980. Para alem do negocio que faz (venda de produtos de primeiras necessidades) também cria gado bovino e produz horticolas no vale do rio umbeluzi, no distrito de boane.
Na actividade comercial vende arroz, farina e bebidas donde obtêm o rendimento mensal de aprox. 5.500,00MT que aplica no sustento da família e consegue poupar na sua conta bancário no Barclays. O marido não tem emprego formal e vive também de pequenos biscates.

Este é o primeiro empréstimo da Atalia na Hluvuku-Adsema no valor de 10.000,00MT para compra e venda de produtos de primeira necessidade (arroz, farinha e outros). Já teve empréstimos numa instituição similar que opera no distrito em regime ambulatório, mas depois de concluir decidiu não continuar por varias razoes de varia ordem.

Propõe de na pagar o empréstimo sem problemas para poder a ceder a mais créditos com intuito de fazer crescer o seu negocio, principalmente na próxima quadra festiva.
