Savings Groups are growing

The Savings Group Facilitators have just received a gift in thanks for their voluntary work setting up these life changing groups within the refugee camps.

Noel the Microfinace co-ordinator for CRESS’ Delivery Partners the Diocese Of Liwolo in Uganda wrote to tell us about the most recent updates:

“I had two successful group meetings today in Mijale. One is a share-out meeting and a first grouping meeting of a new group with a purpose of taking them through the saving methodology as well as envisioning the members.

This is a 32nd-new group formed after constructing a community mobilization and training last week. They received their saving materials on Saturday last week and started first saving meeting the following day (i.e Sunday). Besides saving of their individual money, some of them had businesses and others are aspiring to after receiving.”
