Notes
Alex B met thirty eight members of Bukudumira about different projects they are doing in the group .They were to discuss that through saving as individuals they will start a loaning scheme. When he arrived they went to check up with the piece of land they have started preparing to plant the peas. Swaibu Kigoolo one of the signatories to their bank account asked the members to save their money with their account. He said through that they will be able to do better things for themselves and the group. Alex B advised them to keep records of the different projects with the group. He told the leaders to note down everything for the group and be able to give accountability to the members any time is required. Since they are doing garden project as a group,leaders to come up with options how the group can do saving. Through their contributions,they will able to have money on their account. The money from members given in by them after some time will have accumulated. They will meet and decide how to begin always what people call loaning scheme. He told since it all the members will be responsible on that money,then interest rates will be decided by members. There is need for the group to look or create a wide base of income to unable them to make more money on their account. He suggested to them that one of them is through saving every time they meet and discuss about their group. Hadija one of the members suggested to the members to work hard for money so that they make saving. She urged them to do personal projects that will earn the money and be able to save with the group. For she is making bricks for commercial and hope to get money out of them when they will be sold.
