Born in Kétao in 1974, Mrs. Béatrice Alpha is married and the mother of one small son. Besides this child, she is responsible for two other people who help her sell her products. Producing millet juice is her daily business.



After the poor harvests of last year, millet has become very expensive. In order to continue production, she is asking for a loan to purchase enough millet so as to be sheltered from price hikes.



By means of this business, she will manage to improve living conditions for her family.

Translated from French by Teresa Kramer, Kiva Volunteer


Née à Kétao en 1974, Madame ALPHA Béatrice est mariée et mère d’un petit garçon. Outre cet enfant, elle compte à sa charge deux autres personnes qui l’aident à vendre ses produits. La production du jus de mil est son activité quotidienne.

Après les mauvaises récoltes de l’année dernière, la mesure du mil devient très chère. Pour continuer à produire, elle sollicite un crédit pour acheter assez de mil afin d’être à l’abri de la hausse continue du prix.

Par cette activité, elle aura réussi à améliorer les conditions de vie de sa famille.
