• This project involves the growing of vegetables and selling at retail price. These women deemed it possible to start this business of growing vegetables so that they could support themselves and pay their own bills. Each month, they loan themselves a small amount of money to maintain their business, after which they bring interest and keep it in the bank.

About The Project

They plan to expand their business by doing the following: putting down pipelines for water irrigation and introducing mulching to help their plants. Additionally, they plan to sell their vegetables in bulk to other parts of the country. Something interesting is that they are conducting table banking amongst themselves, which will help them when they shall receive the donation. This will allow them to track their business growth when they meet.


Paying it Forward

They empower other fellow women in the field of agriculture.

Funding Report

Backstory

These women are all farmers. Because farming is their source of income, they are very determined to work hard to break the status quo surrounding women in their community. They started this project by putting their small amount of money together to sustain both their business and their families. They have not received any support from anyone, nor have they received support from a bank. Instead, they themselves support each other in this project. They have achieved transparency and accountability and are hardworking amongst others. They support themselves and are looking forward to expand their network within their local community. The challenge could be a lack of funds to maintain their business.
