Amal from Mawiyah is a widow with no income and was forced to beg to feed her children. She shared with the ITDC team that she was constantly feeling shame, ridicule, and humiliation as she went around begging.
“After I received the food basket, you saved my dignity.”
Since Amal was provided with food assistance for over six months from ITDC, she was able to save the little money she had to start raising a small number of goats, and now says that she no longer has to ask for money from others.
