Amira Shawky owns her own sewing business in Awlad Gharieb village, Sohag governorate in Upper Egypt. She is a single mother of two school children. Amira fixed torn clothes using simple sewing materials, however she was earning a very low income. Amira joined the Vocational Training Program to learn professional sewing and develop her techniques. The program also offered her training for business tactics. She, later on, applied for a loan from BLESS to buy the materials to grow her business and purchase her own sewing machine. The business thrived and Amira’s income increased by 30% which helped in supporting her children and their education.
