Susan is a 32-year-old married woman caring for a large family. She has five children ages 20, 18, 13, 10, and 6, and she also takes care of three orphans. Currently, seven of her children attend school. Susan’s husband has been unable to find work for a while now, so Susan is the sole breadwinner for her family of 10.
To make ends meet, she buys and sells women’s dresses, offers sewing services, and sells other essential commodities from a kiosk. She is an ambitious tailor who ensures that all the dresses she sells or alters perfectly fit, ensuring her customers return.
Susan aspires to support her children until they finish university studies and build a three-bedroom house for her family.
She will invest her microloan into a new sewing machine and also buy more textiles to boost her business, so that she can increase her profits and repay her loan on time.
