Mrs. Bonin Colette Orou Dama sells ice, cold water, ice pops, and refrigerated beverages at her home. She is married and is the mother of 3 children. Bola (13) is no longer enrolled in school, Hamidath (10) is in fourth grade, and Mouba (7) is in second grade. Since she lacks the financial means to expand her drinks sales, Mrs. Orou Dama is requesting her third loan to acquire a refrigerator which will permit her to increase her production and better satisfy her clientele.
