Agbaze Amoussougan

A mature woman, Madame AMOUSSOUGAN Agbazé was born in 1947 in Attitogon village but currently lives in Aklakou in the Lake Prefecture. She is very dedicated and has refused to become complacent despite her age and that of her four children. Her primary economic activity is hair braiding, which she has been doing since she was young. Her outdated tools however, don't allow her to be very productive. This is why she is seeking a $600 loan to obtain more modern equipment which will allow her to improve profits to meet her daily needs.

Femme de troisième âge, Madame AMOUSSOUGAN Agbazé est née en 1947 dans le village d’Attitogon et vit actuellement à Aklakou dans la Préfecture des Lacs. Très dévouée, elle ne s’est pas résignée malgré son âge avancé et la maturité de ses quatre (4) enfants. Sa principale activité consiste à tresser des nattes, ce qu’elle exerce depuis son jeune âge. La vétusté de ses matériels ne lui permet plus d’obtenir un bon rendement. C’est alors qu’elle sollicite un crédit de $600 pour se procurer de quelques équipements modernes lui permettant d’améliorer son rendement et de subvenir à ses besoins quotidiens.
