Entrepreneur: Filida Muwanga's Group
Location: Lugazi, Uganda

Muwanga Filida is a farmer, a fish monger and keeps cows at her home that give her milk for sale. Over the years, she has become a responsible member of society because she is able to educate her children, she employs men on her three boats to do the fishing on her behalf and a herdsman to keep and milk the cows. Filida is happy that the loans have worked for her for all the years she has been taking them for her business and school fees for her children and dependants.
