Dravin* started a micro business of costume ornament making at his own home. His family was weak financially, doing labor work and managing the family was so challenging. He had good skills in ornament making, but he wasn’t able to start his own business because of money.

He learned from the Transformational Community Development (TCD) training, business practices, and Income Generation, and he was inspired to start his own business, but he still had financial problems. The TCD committee decided to help him provide seed money to start his business.

He worked hard for his business and has now become successful in raising his income source with the help of TCD. By the inspiration of TCD’s teaching, training, encouragement, and help of a little seed money, he started a business in his own home. He is excited and happy with his business, and his family members are happy. This month, he made a good income by selling ornaments. He returned the seed money to the TCD committee. He shares his experience to other community members and wants to teach them freely.

*For the purpose of safety and wellbeing, “Dravin” is a pseudonym for the individual being helped by this project.

Thank you!
