A loan of $1,025 helps to buy more fish, thus meeting high demand and increasing her profits.

Joyce's story
Joyce, a 55-year-old mother of three from Kenya, is a dedicated fishmonger who works hard to provide for her family. Her husband is a farmer, and together they support their children through their daily efforts. Joyce supplies and sells fish within her community, a business she loves because it allows her to meet local demand while earning a stable livelihood.
She is seeking support as she wishes to expand her business and meet the growing demand for fish. Her main challenge is her limited capital, and the support will help her stock more fish and increase her income, allowing her to invest in future projects. Joyce also contributes to her community by ensuring access to nutritious protein and employing people who help transport fish from the lake to her business.
Having successfully repaid a previous loan used for school fees, Joyce now aims to grow her business so she can secure a better future for her children.
