Fozia Islaam lives in Lahore with her husband and children. Over the years, she has developed her skills as a talented seamstress. Her careful work and attention to detail have made her a trusted name in her community, especially among women who turn to her for well-made and practical garments.
Fozia Islaam faced financial hardship due to her husband's limited income and lack of external support. Her situation improved when she discovered Lendwithcare's local partner Akhuwat and secured an interest-free loan, enabling her to expand her tailoring business. Soon, her business started thriving; she even bought a refrigerator for her house, previously unaffordable, and now sends her kids to a reputable school.
Today, Fozia Islaam's business is thriving, meeting household needs and empowering others, creating a ripple effect of opportunity and kindness. She remains deeply grateful to Lendwithcare and Akhuwat for their support, crediting the organisation with transforming her journey from struggle to success.
