Mrs. Alima Mbengue sells fritters so as to help her husband support their family and improve their little family's living conditions. Thus, she would like to buy shoes and cloth so as to expand the range of merchandise she sells. She is borrowing 150,000 Frs. This is her first loan.



Mrs. Alima Mbengue is a beneficiary of the Protocol between Kiva Partner U-IMCEC and the Development Program for Children and Families "Seydina Issa Laye". This Program seeks to reduce poverty within the community and especially to protect children from destitute families. Thanks to this cooperation, the parents of these families can benefit from loans with more flexible terms than ordinary loans. Since the start of this Protocol in December 2008, 120 parents have received loans in amounts varying from 50,000 to 150,000 CFA francs.
