Madame Gisele is a client of Hekima IMF and chairs the MAMAN NI MAMAN village group. She is 42 years old, married, and the mother of 5 children, all of whom are in school. Her partner is a businessman.
Madame Gisele sells a variety of foods. She began her business 10 years ago with start-up funds she received from her husband. Later she got involved with the Hekima program to support their business, which has grown gradually since then. With this new loan she will purchase beans, soybeans, and rice which will strengthen her initial capital. The challenge to her business is tied to the lack of of goods due to insecurity.
Madame Gisele would like to have her children continue their education and develop her business. Finally, she would like to thank Hekima and its partners for the support they have shown to owners of businesses that have no monetary value during this global Covid-19 crisis.
