Meet Marta.
A few months ago, she was facing significant financial difficulties — struggling to make ends meet for her family in the Mutua community of Mozambique.
Today, she stands behind a small wooden stall of her own making. A new business, just beginning to take root.
What changed?
Through our Family Preservation Program, Marta received two things: targeted skills training, and a business kit to launch with. Practical, focused, and paired with ongoing mentorship from our field team.
That's it. No handouts. No dependency. Just the tools and the training to build something of her own.
Her words say it best:
"Thank you so much to the project team for your support; you have given me back the hope to live. With the help you have given me, I can adjust my income and minimize the difficulties I have been facing. Now I know that I will fight to maintain and grow my business."
This is what development assistance looks like when it's done with dignity — not for people, but with them.
Marta is the proof. And there are more families ready to begin.
