A loan of $900 helps to buy an auto-rickshaw for a woman.

Humaira Khalid is an epitome of strength and perseverance. She was referred to Seed Out by Smile Again Foundation after she underwent surgery to recover from the burns that she faced. Unfortunately, Humaira faced persecution upon changing her religion to Islam but despite the injustice she faced, she has emerged as strong as ever.  She is supporting her husband in looking after their 5 children. She has 2 sons and three daughters. All children are school going, the youngest being in the nursery. An undeterred woman, Humaira works as a sweeper in a hospital. She had to temporarily quit her work because of her condition but will soon rejoin. Her husband cannot do demanding work and runs a grocery store on a minuscule scale. Their combined income is extremely low and not enough to meet the most basic of needs. However, Humaira isn't one to give up. She started learning driving 4 months ago and now wants to get an auto-rickshaw and start her own pick and drop service. She will not let anything or anyone get in the way of her happiness and the wellbeing of her children! 

Humaira is her children's hope and a role model for women and men alike. When you support her, not only do you support Humaira and her family, but also the ideal of women empowerment, strength, hard work and perseverance. Be a part of Humaira's journey and become an enabler for women's economic empowerment!
