Moza would like to become a dairy farmer to supplement her income. She is 49 years old and lives in Pondeani, in the western part of the island of Pemba, just off the coast of mainland Tanzania. She is married and she and her husband have eight children, ranging from 8 to 23 years old. Moza works as a teacher, earning a salary of roughly US$ 950 (1,500,000 TZS) per year. Her husband works at the Ministry of Education and earns about US$ 825 (1,300,000 TZS) each year.

As part of the Pondeani group, Moza is looking forward to helping to open the local branch of Pemba Fresh, the island's first dairy farm, where she and the group will care for the cattle and produce fresh milk, eventually expanding to cheese, yogurt, butter, ghee, and other products. Through dairy farming, Moza has the potential to vastly increase her income and improve her daily life.
