Learning to save wasn’t easy – there was always a little fear, because I’ve unfortunately lost my savings in the past.
However, thanks to this project, the discussions, the workshops, explanations of why we need to save in a certain way, bit by bit weve gained more confidence in the system. With this project I lost my fear, and savings for me have become extremely important – savings can help with all kinds of emergencies, to ensure our health, and to educate our children. For me, its about my children – I want to see them grow up with more than I did, so they can be professionals.
Thanks to this project, I know that we as women are strong and capable.
