25/9: Fortunata

Today we went to the CHE group. As the last five women are finishing their loans we wanted to do post loan interviews with them. But as there was a funeral most of the women did not show up. In fact only two out of the ten women came and one of them just got a new loan. Fortunata was the only one there that is finishing her loan today. Her business is that she makes a nutritious porridge and she is making a lot of money on it, but she needs to expand her business as she is able to make 100 kg a month as it is, but there is a demand for 200 kg. In the afternoon we had a meeting with the chairwomen, though in truth only one of them was the actual chairwoman, but the rest represented their groups. It was a good meeting and we got a lot of positive feedback from the women and some things that we could do better, which was the real reason for having the meeting. To know what we can do better, that is also why we have made an evaluation survey we want to hand out to the women next week.
