Saeeda is a 63-year-old married woman and the mother of three children. She is featured with her son in the photo. It was hard for Saeeda to manage her household expenses with her husband's small income. Therefore, some years ago, she started her cattle business in her community. Her husband fully supports and assists her with her work.

Now, she has requested a 40,000 PKR Murabaha loan, which she wants to use to purchase more cattle to resell in the market. Saeeda has gained great confidence in the business as she has learnt how to deal with other individuals within the business, allowing her to feel empowered.
