Shabnam

Shabnam is a young woman from Tursunzoda. She is only 22 years old. She is married and raising two small children. Her husband is earning money in Russia, and all the family's cares sit on her shoulders.

Shabnam has now been working as a seamstress for five years. She likes her business and lovingly creates beautiful and high-quality items for her clients. But she has difficulties every day: The old sewing machine works slowly, wasting a lot of time, and she is forced to delay or decline orders.

Now Shabnam is dreaming of buying a new sewing machine to speed up her work, increase her number of orders and provide a stable income for her family. This is not simply an equipment purchase; it is an opportunity to feed her children, provide them with an education and create some confidence in the future while her husband is far away earning money.

Shabnam trusts in your support and hopes that, with your help, she can increase her skill, improve her family's life and move forward with confidence.
