Mariama needs microfinance funds to start a small business selling local food. Mariama is a great cook and this is her dream career. This project will provide the needed funds for her to start her business and become independent. Opening a small business will help her bridge the opportunity gap and take her to the next level.
The funds will provide the needed resources for Mariama to start her business. She needs a range of cooking ingredients and furniture. With these items, she will be able to start her food service business. With the extra funding she will be able to offer one or two additional items and secure a place of her own. This will help transition her into her new chosen career and make a huge difference in her life.
This project will help Mariama rise from poverty, become productive and self-reliant, and win the respect of people in the community. Support for Mariama will help change her life.
Owning her own business will help build Mariama's self-esteem, provide the means for her to become independent, help benefit the community by providing needed goods and services, and enable her to offer future employment for others.
