For the month of January, BANGS Brand Ambassadors chose the Sabaly group of Mali to invest in as the entrepreneur of the month.
In the bottom left side of the photo, holding the sheep, is Ramatou. She is a 40 year old woman who is widowed and has six orphaned children.
Ramatou is an entrepreneur with a 10-year livestock business, and with her loan she will be able to buy more livestock to trade back into the market. The income she is able to make goes towards the needs of her children. Although the trading business is difficult, Ramatou is happy because she is able to provide for her family.
