Matovu Mary is the chairperson of Tukolere wamu lending group in Masajja, Uganda. The group meets at her home. Mary has run a retail shop for over 9 years and the shop has never failed since she joined her group. Mary is a married lady with 6 children, 3 of whom are in school, and she cares for 4 dependents who are all in school. Her loans help her so much in her shop that she can pay the school fees and upkeep. She needs her portion of the group loan to help with restocking her shop with sugar, soap, salt, cooking oil, paraffin, eggs, and so much more .
