Maram's story
Maram, a Jordanian woman in her early thirties, is the daughter in a family of three. She is a responsible individual who was raised to become more supportive and stronger over time.
To cover her family’s financial expenses and take responsibility for their well-being, she started a hand-crafted candle trading business and requested a loan of 900 JOD to buy the necessary supplies and tools for her business. She aims to achieve success, expand her business, and empower women who are the primary providers for their families to work hard and follow their dreams.
