A loan of $375 helps to buy threads and tailoring material for her stitching business.

Niaz's story
Niaz, a 44-year-old parent of two, runs a home-based stitching business to support the family. Limited finances previously restricted the ability to purchase quality fabrics and improve equipment.
With the help of a CEIP microfinance loan, Niaz upgraded materials and expanded the work, allowing for more orders and increased income. Now, household expenses are managed more comfortably, and better educational support is provided to the children. This journey reflects the positive impact of microfinance in strengthening family livelihoods.
