- Notes
- Chris and Alex visited Bukudumira village to meet the members and also make a follow up on whether they open up the group account, the purpose of this was to get an update and bring every member on board and generate ideas on what they will do with their bank account. Alex and Chris met with 16 women and 9 men however the chairperson was also around despite her being so sick ,she wanted to witness how her members were contributing ideas in the meeting. The chairperson said she was unable to open the the bank account because she fell sick and another factor was that they lost four members in their village so everyone was busy on respective funerals however she promised to take the documents to the bank on Monday next week and see if they can open the bank account. The members also took Alex and Chris around their maize garden and indeed Chris and Alex were encouraged to see that the maize was growing so well. On top of the maize garden the members also harvested their cowpeas and sold it so they want to meet on Wednesday and discuss what they will do with their money. Alex and Chris encouraged the members to work together and love their neighbors as they love themselves. Chris and Alex promised the members that they will come back and discuss what they would want to do with their money
