We started with five members who wanted to come together to share our savings and support one another. Now we are planning to raise poultry and make bricks together to create more income for the group. We are also able to make loans to group members and share the profits from the interest. We know that together as a group and with THRIVEGulu we will achieve success in our plan for the future.
My husband died, and my children couldn’t continue their education because I had no money to pay their school fees. My neighbor told me about the savings groups THRIVEGulu was forming. I joined, and today I am paying for 3 of my children to attend lower primary school. Out of my savings I bought three goats and a pig. With time I am planning to start my own livestock business.
THRIVEGulu empowers survivors of violence in post-conflict northern Uganda to reclaim their dignity and heal the invisible wounds of psychological trauma through integrated, holistic services which address mental health, financial self-reliance, and multigenerational literacy.
