Sharifa, daughter of Abdullah Khan, was born in 1953. She is married and her family counts 6 people and lives in district 8 of Kabul. She is an illiterate women because when she was young girls were not allowed to go to school. She has a bead works business and through that she solves some of her financial problems. She started her business with limited resources and few materials because she didn't have enough money at that time to purchase more materials for her business. Therefore, her production was small and she could not make much income from her business. She was thinking about ways to expand her business when she heard about the loan process and decided to take a loan. She used her loans in a good way, resulting in her business expanding, production increasing and sales improving. Sharifa has finished 3 loan cycles and now she is in her 4th cycle. She is happy with the loans and wants to continue with it because the loans had a positive impact in her business.
