Despite all of this success, Almaz carries the weight of raising her children alone in a foreign country. She remembers her life back home and how she used to live, and tears stream down her cheeks.
She is grateful for the support she has received from DRC over the years, especially counseling. This has helped her cope with the challenges of being a refugee.
Almaz thanks the DRC staff under the Supporting Displacement Affected Communities in Kenya with Entrepreneurship Development (SDACKED) project; a financial inclusion project funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA) for the business skills and support she has received. She urges other refugees to support each other in making lives bearable.
Almaz's journey from a refugee to entrepreneurial success in Kenya is a testament to the strength of the human spirit. Despite all the hardship she has faced, she has never given up hope for a better future.
Her determination to provide for her family and build a better life for herself and them is an inspiration to us all
