The doors of personal and financial success swung wide open for the 50-year-old Amal. It happened after she opened a supermarket providing necessary food items and home essentials to the community where she resides with her family of 8 at As-Salt.
Amal said that her success stemmed from her believing in herself and her ability to be productive enough to secure extra income for her family from the profit of this humble supermarket.
She also added that Microfund for Women lent her the helping hand and support she needed in the form of a monetary fund that enabled her to start this business.
