Damali Kasunsu of the Widows Support group in Twezimbe Centre, Mbiko, Jinja, Uganda.The centre is funded by Trócaire and is run by Sister Maureen of the Franciscan Missionaries.

Many of the widows have extended families to support, due to HIV it is common for grandmothers to be looking after 9-11 grandchildren. The widows were trained for 2 months in savings and credit, marketing, managing business, profit and loss accounts The widow support group enables its members to support and learn from each other. The group were then given loans to start their own small businesses.

Damali said : “This support group gives us great things. We have land to live on and are able to earn a living. We are able to pay school fees, to buy food and to dress smartly.

We are given loans, we learn how to save and at the same time to pay back loans very well. We make jewellery and crafts.

Damali’s husband died in 1997. Left with five children life was very difficult. She felt helpless and very upset. She didn’t know where to turn. But thanks to the Lord a friend who was in the widow’s group asked her to join the group. She came to the centre and met the Sisters and other widows. She got love from fellow widows and felt very comfortable with them.

The training gave her a happiness she didn’t think she would have again. Life is now very different. She can now make her basic needs and her children are in school.
