Ever since I started my project, I focused on training and empowering women. My ambition is to train more than a thousand women, and hopefully my dream will soon come true.

Amani Hadoush: needlework

Amani, a talented 27-year-old needleworker from Salt, creates beautiful crocheted bags and hats, as well as embroidered designs. She customizes each piece to meet her client’s specific desires, purchasing the necessary tools and materials for each order. Remarkably, the profits from her artwork support her family.

Amani began making needlework products before she received a loan from MFW. She learned to crochet and embroider from YouTube. She used her own skills and determination to learn, instead of learning from a training course. She took a loan from MFW to buy materials for her needlework and used the partnership with MFW to advertise her products. Amani’s major challenge is that people in Salt do not buy expensive handmade products. However, people in Amman, a larger city, tend to buy more of these products. She realized that she could improve her business through working with shops and Bazaars. MFW has allowed her to sell her products at Souk Baladna, exposing her to a larger market. This move proved successful, and she has made substantial profits by selling at bazaars and shops.

Amani’s thriving business has given her the financial stability to support her family and reduce stress. By continuing to work with MFW, she is paving a long-term path to success.
