Sophia, another beneficiary of FBL Tajikistan, was provided with the necessary tools and a freezer to start making dumplings. She uses fresh ingredients to produce the dumplings and sells them in the local market.
“Sophia now generates is helping this family, not only to survive, but also to save money and expand the dumpling business.”
She has also hired another local woman to assist her in the production. Sophia’s husband makes 600 Somoni in his government job, and the family pays 550 Somoni to rent their home. The additional income Sophia now generates is helping this family, not only to survive, but also to save money and expand the dumpling business.
