The number of COVID cases were high in Pakistan at the beginning of the pandemic. A strict national lockdown helped reduce cases, but the virus is still prevalent and regional lockdowns continue to have a big impact on economic activity. The low-income entrepreneurs we support in Pakistan require working capital to help rebuild their businesses and provide a vital source of income for their families again.
