I used funding from MFW to buy an oven and all the necessary materials to make my sweets. During Eid, I would make over 80 kilos of sweets with the support of my daughters.
Today, I utilize social media channels to market my mouth watering mamoul to my family and friends, I even do advertising on Facebook to attract new customers.
Thankfully, as a result of my project, I was able to support my children and my grandchildren, and with the support of my beloved husband, we even have our own house now!
