Akou KASSA was born in Tsévié in 1955. As the daughter of peasants, she did not have the opportunity to go to school, much like the other girls of her generation. From a young age, she has been selling mush throughout the city. She married a laborer and has five children. Everything was going so well when suddenly he died in a traffic accident. Since then, all family expenses have fallen onto her shoulders. To deal with the situation, she got a $350 loan, which she repaid without a problem.




An honest and energetic woman, she has always put into practice the management advice she receives, all to improve her business and make it profitable. To strengthen her business, she is requesting a loan of $850 to stock up on rice, sugar, and other basic goods. She will then be able to increase her income to improve the living conditions of her orphan children and her family.

Madame KASSA Akou est née à Tsévié en 1955. Fille de paysans, elle n’a pas eu la chance de faire des études à l’instar des autres filles de son époque. Depuis son jeune âge, elle vend de la bouillie à travers les quartiers de la ville. Mariée à un ouvrier, elle a eu cinq (05) enfants. Tout allait si bien quand subitement le mari décède à la suite d’un accident de circulation. Depuis ce temps, toutes les dépenses de la famille sont revenues à sa charge. Pour faire face à la situation, elle a obtenu un crédit de $350 qu’elle a déjà remboursé sans difficulté.



Honnête et dynamique, elle a toujours mis en application les conseils en gestion reçus pour améliorer et rentabiliser ses activités. Pour renforcer son activité, elle sollicite un crédit de $ 850 qui va lui permettre de s’approvisionner en riz, sucre et autres produits de première nécessité. Elle pourra augmenter ses revenus afin d’améliorer les conditions de vie de ses enfants orphelins et de sa famille.
