Notre histoire
Fourteen of us began in 2019, a hundred rupees each a month, counted out on a durrie in the panchayat ghar. From the box we lend to each other: for school fees, a calf, a sewing machine. In winter we knit socks; in spring we put up lingad and mango pickle from our own fields. Every rupee is written in the book, and every loan has come back.

What we make
Everything is made by the members, at home, from what grows and grazes around us.
Woollen socks
Hand-knitted socks and caps in the old Himachali patterns, from local wool, all winter.
Our savings box
Every member saves ₹100 a month. From the box we lend to each other at low interest, and every loan is written in the book.
Nos réunions
Every month, together
On the first Sunday of every month, at the panchayat ghar in Bandla, at 11. We count the savings, decide the loans and write the minutes together.
