Nalubega Faith is 56 years old. She is a determined and hardworking lady with a crafts and catering business that she has operated in Butebe for four years. She makes African crafts and arts and her major challenge is that the crafts materials are expensive, hence limiting her profit to 90,000/= a week.

Faith has a dream of expanding her business to start exporting her crafts as well as building rental accommodation for increased income. She needs a loan to help expand her business since the profits made from it help to pay school fees for her five children as well as enabling her to take care of other orphans.
