Jossefina's story

Jossefina, a native of Magude, 50 years old, lives with her partner in her own home with her older children and grandchildren. She plays no prominent role in the community. She is a merchant and intends to use the loan to buy several essential products like detergent, sugar, rice, oil among several drinks and grocery products.

This is her third loan and she invested the previous loan in the same activity. Her biggest dream is to expand her business.
