More than impressive, these were Taghreed’s words when asked to describe her 5-year-long relationship with Microfund for Women, for which she obtained 6 Tatweer funds.
The 34-year-old Taghreed said that these funds enabled her to open an independent accessories and home gadget shop in As-Salt.
Taghreed emphasized that her shop allowed her to have extra income to pay for her essential needs adding that being independent strengthened her self-confidence and made her more of a productive member of her community.
