In the past, Husna has taken out 3 previous loans from Tujijenge Tanzania to increase her business and she also opened a small nursery school. She hopes for a new loan to increase capital. She will share this loan with her sub-group members dealing in charcoal sales, food sales, pharmacy and a shop.

Money in the Bank
 
Entrepreneur: Kazi Za Jamii B Group
Location: Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania

Greetings from Tanzania! Thank you for supporting Husna Juma and subgroup B of the Kazi za Jamii group. With the loan Husna received, she increased her stock of charcoal for her business. She also purchased a sewing machine so she can earn additional income from making clothes. Before the loan her monthly profit was about $61. Now, she is earning about $86 per month! She puts her additional profits into the bank so she has extra funds should an emergency arise. Husna and subgroup B of the Kazi za Jamii group are very grateful for the loan and are thankful to everyone who has supported them.
