Patience is a trader
SBE 2024 Beneficiary Frugal Empowerment Foundation
Patience is a small business owner who sells seasonal fruits to support her family. Her fruit stall may be small, but it is very important to her”it helps her provide food and care for her children every day.
Because she sells seasonal fruits, business can be unpredictable. Prices go up, and sometimes it’s hard to get fresh fruits to sell. Even with these challenges, Patience works hard and never gives up.
In 2024, Patience was chosen as a beneficiary of the Frugal Empowerment Foundation’s Small Business Empowerment (SBE) Project. With the support she received, she was able to buy more fruits during the busy seasons, which helped her attract more customers and earn more money.
I thank FEF for the help. It really made a difference, but business is still hard. I need more support to grow, Patience says.
Her story is one of many women like her who have the strength and will to succeed but need a little help. With your support, we can help Patience and others build stronger businesses and better futures.
