Butool's Story

When Butool signed up for a microfinance loan, she thought she would just be helping herself and her family... The loan enabled her to purchase the supplies and materials she needed to open her own tailoring business in her village. Microfinance was a new idea to Butool, but she was willing to try - anything to help her family rise out of the poverty they'd been living in for so long.

Sitara's Story

Sitara worried about her new baby's future. She knew how hard it was for her growing up in a poor family. The last thing she wanted was for her son to face the same challenges. But despite her and her husband's best efforts to make their small, home-run, grocery store business successful, they could not escape the grip poverty had on them.
