A loan helped a member to increase her income by expanding her furniture business by purchasing more wood and making more furniture.


Uma And Group's story

Uma, a 24-year-old married woman from the North 24 Parganas district, West Bengal, is involved in the furniture-making business. Alongside her husband, she purchases wood from the wholesale market and crafts finished products such as almirahs, tables, chairs, and center tables. She lives in a household of three and earns a monthly income of INR 25,000.

To grow her business and increase her earnings, Uma plans to buy more raw materials and produce additional furniture pieces. She has applied for a group loan of INR 150,000 from WeGrow, a lending partner of Milaap. Uma leads a group of three women, all engaged in income-generating activities and seeking financial support to expand their businesses.

With this loan, Uma and her group members hope to improve their livelihoods and build a better future for their families. They are truly thankful for the support and encouragement from generous lenders like you.
