Fatuma

200 USD financed in April 2016
(in collaboration with
MLE EMPOWERING APPAREL)

Fatuma lives in Likoni, in Kenya. She is married with five children. Four of them attend school. She owns a house that has neither electricity nor piped water. Her greatest monthly expense is school fees and water. She operates a cashew nuts business, selling at the market to her neighbors and passersbys. She has been doing this for the past 10 years. She faces a major challenge of seasonality in her business. With this 200 USD loan, she wants to purchase seven sacks of cashew nuts. This will help her to boost her business.
