A Mother’s Journey to Success: Haja’s Story of Resilience and Growth

Haja, a 40-year-old mother of two, faced tremendous challenges after the loss of her husband. Struggling to support her children on her own, she sold Achekeh, a local dish made with gari, to make ends meet. This business helped her provide for her family and build a future for her children.

This is where Reseed stepped in to offer support. Haja received her first loan cycle of 500NLE (£19), which gave her the kickstart she needed to grow her business. This allowed Haja to expand her catering offerings and improve the quality of her product. Today, her food is in high demand, and she has gained a loyal customer base.

Haja’s story is a powerful example of how our work is not a short-term fix. By helping individuals like Haja achieve financial stability, we are addressing poverty at its core. Her success not only supports her family but has a ripple effect on her entire community, highlighting the lasting impact of sustainable livelihoods.
