Patience is a small business owner
SBE 2024 Beneficiary Frugal Empowerment Foundation
Patience is a small business owner who works hard every day to provide for her family. Her business may be small, but it means the world to her. It’s how she earns a living, pays school fees, and keeps food on the table.
Running a business hasn’t been easy. Prices keep rising, and getting enough stock is a daily struggle. Still, Patience remains determined, doing all she can to keep going despite the challenges.
In 2024, Patience was selected as a beneficiary of the Frugal Empowerment Foundation’s Small Business Empowerment (SBE) Project. With the support she received, she was able to add more goods to her shop, attract more customers, and slightly increase her income. It was a much-needed lift.
I’m so grateful to FEF for supporting me. It helped my business a lot, but things are still hard. I need more help to really grow, Patience says.
Her story is a reflection of many other women”strong, hardworking, and full of potential who only need a little support to go far. With your help, we can turn their efforts into lasting progress.
