ARTISAN TESTIMONIALS
“I am a single mother of one. I worked on the Mimco order as a supervisor for the finishing section which performs the final quality control. The income from the order assisted with school fees for my daughter, new clothes and a regular healthy meal.”
Joan Ndetei, 29
“I am a mother of six. The Mimco order was really important for me in terms of paying school fees for my children. Educating children in my family is not a priority for my husband and so I worked hard to raise tuition fees and meet other needs such as food, school uniform and books. I do not wish to see my children lack education as I do and so Mimco contributed towards fulfilling my wish.”
Maria Teteyio, 37
“I am a mother of five. I worked on the beaded circles during the Mimco order. The income from the order assisted me to meet the weekly contribution to the merry-go-round group. I also invested by buying two goats which I sell in December during the Christmas holidays.”
