“She had the skill. She had the determination. What she needed was an opportunity.”
The challenge
She had trained as a seamstress and had regular customers, but worked on a borrowed machine only two days a week.
The opportunity
A starter grant and a machine of her own, with three months of business mentorship.
The journey
With her own equipment she could take orders on her own schedule and begin keeping simple records of income and costs.
Progress today
She now works six days a week and has taken on an apprentice.
