Notes
Introduction Since Manuela went for Christmas holiday, it was a while, Manuela had planned to go and mobilize the community members. Overview When Manuela reached the village, Manuela went straight away to the chairman, she informed him about her coming and they started to move around home to home greeting people and mobilizing them about the next visit , Manuela was telling them about Kibo plans for 2020. As they were moving, they kept on asking the members how the Christmas was and the New year, Manuela went on and asked them that do they have plans for taking their children to school, they said yes. After that Manuela visited some woman called migrate , she is HIV positive, Manuela found her not feeling well, Manuela asked her if she was talking her medication properly she said sometimes she forgets, but Manuela told her to keep time taking her medication because it may bring other health issues which is not good. Manuela went on and advised her to eat well balanced diet food, continue doing exercise and above all Manuela encouraged her to pray to God. After that visit, Manuela and the chairman continued moving they found four women seated together and they were talking ways on how they plan to start their savings, when Manuela joined them, she encouraged them to go on but Manuela told them to also inform their husbands so that they can help them where possible.
