Femmecup spreads the word in Uganda

Added 10 November 2011

As part of our ongoing commitment to reaching women in developing countries we recently assisted distribution of Femmecup in Uganda by providing heavily subsidised product. Our contact Joanne Walker lived and volunteered in Uganda in 2009/2010 and whilst there she assisted a group of nine local women set up a small micro-finance initiative. The idea of the initiative is that each woman makes a saving each week into a local village bank. With the money the group save they provide each other with small loans to help them improve their incomes through developing new business initiatives.

Since Joanne left the village in 2010 the ladies built a stall on the main road where they sell their own produce. Each woman involved donated a tree and paid a local man to have the stall built.

During her recent trip back to Ruhanga Joanne distributed 31 Femmecups to these women and also to their daughters. We already have feedback from one lady stating that Femmecup is "excellent". Let's hope many more women benefit soon. To find out more about this initiative please visit: www.homestayuganda.com/women.html
