Sana, 25, from Shahid Benazirabad, Sindh, a mother of two, had a husband working as a seasonal farmer with irregular income.
After the floods, her family lost their livelihood, accumulated debt, and she struggled to feed her children.
She joined a Human Appeal training program in partnership with WFP and FAO, learning embroidery, digital marketing, photography, social media management, and budgeting.
She received a small grant of PKR 54,000 to start her own business.
Thanks to her new skills, she began selling her products and even received orders from outside Pakistan.
Sana says: “I thought I was just a forgotten woman, but today I support my family with dignity, earning PKR 15,000–20,000 per month. The training didn’t just change my life; it gave me confidence to build a better future.”
