Jennis Tejera, El Tule, Olancho: We began working together a year ago, with support from World Renew and INFOP. There are twelve women in our group, we got trained to make different types of bread and cake, and biscuits and snacks, new types of baking that we weren’t used to. We built an oven and we bake together once a month, and we do it to sell the produce, and at the moment we are saving the profits as a group, we’ll decide later what to do with the money, maybe at the end of the year. We’ve never had savings before. Some of us also bake at other times, I bake to sell quite frequently on my own now as well. Women in this area often don’t have their own money, the man has the money, but having our own money, and having savings, in this area, where there are no paid jobs, is a big change for us.
