Ruqiya Essa's story

Ruqiya Essa is a 26-year-old single woman who has dedicated the past 10 years of her life to the art of laces sales. Living in her own home, she has built a small but steady business that has allowed her to support herself and her child. However, her dream is much bigger than what her current setup allows. With the experience she has gained over the years, she is eager to expand her business into a laces sales and general store that caters to the needs of her community.

Ruqiya is not only skilled in laces sales but also has experience in general store management and stitching. Despite facing challenges, including medical expenses for a patient at home, she remains determined to create a better life for herself and her child. By expanding her business, she hopes to increase her income and provide a more stable future. To make this dream a reality, Ruqiya is seeking support from the Seedout community with a loan of $350.
