I am so thankful that my mom pushed me to enter CEMADEF, I regret that I did not enter way before. I am a primary school teacher. I entered CEMADEF in 2016.

In the beginning, the money used to help me pay my children’s school fees while my teaching salary would help in reimbursing the loan. However, CEMADEF taught me the importance of saving and planning projects. My savings combined with my husband’s savings allowed me to build a pharmacy and a neighborhood boutique! Now I use the money to buy more stock of goods and my profit makes enough to repay the loan itself. Our children are studying and eating well.

Thank you to CEMADEF but also to my mother!
