They are among the 800 000 female business owners affiliated to ‘Adopt a Woman’. “Most of the times, we depend on our husbands to do this, to come and buy bread, but we want to make money. It is time for us women to make money. You know why we decided to group ourselves? We want to go to government and say, government help us, because as you see us, all of us here, we are from different companies. We want government to support our businesses in order for us to grow.”
