Beatrice is the leader of her lending group in Lugazi. She is 27 years old and divorced with two children, ages 8 and 4 years old, who are in primary school. She also cares for her parents. She is a hard working and determined lady who has been sold agricultural produce in Namengo for seven years. At the moment, she is able to make 70,000/= as profits a week. With this, she is grateful for her loans since they enable her to have quality produce for her inventory, hence more revenue. She is faced with a lot of competition in her business, plus the scarcity of produce during some of the bad seasons.

Beatrice has a dream of becoming a wholesale supplier to the rest of the people in her industry as well as building rental houses for her children. She needs a loan to help recapitalize her business since this enables her pay her children’s school fees on time. This is Beatrice’s 59th loan with her lending group from Pearl Microfinance Ltd.
