Notes
Alex B met thirty seven members of Bukudumira. He guided them how they will benefit from the group bank account. The members were told the best way to save their money is with the bank. The money saved in the bank is more safer. The member as individuals or group can save with a group bank account. It is easy for the members to plan and make saving since they do have regular meetings. When they meet together to discuss group issues,becomes opportunity for them as individuals to carry alongside with the money they want to save. He or she can make saving for school fees for their children. One can also save money until is enough for him or her to do business. Alex B told them as one save little by little at the end, good money will be realized for the project he want to operate. He also advised them as the group can benefit from saving their money in the bank. It is more safer to keep their money in the bank. It will or almost do away with risks of loosing the money. The money from group projects is better fast to be banked for easy accountability and members to know how the group bank account is operating.The government always want mostly to give money to groups through cheques that have bank account. The government will take that group to be serious after having constitution,registration certificates and lastly group bank account.The issue is that they can not access the bank account unless they have the constitution and the registration certificate.The group can easily access bank loan when it has bank account,more so in that bank. The members were grateful with it and promised to meet again continue to discuss about it. Alex B,And some members of the group swaibu and Frank after the meeting went to check up with their demonstration group garden project. He saw the garden peas and which was doing good though had weeds.
