Life was not easy for Mama Mark before she joined the Rays of Hope Empowerment Program. Despite her hard work, her small efforts in selling vegetables could barely sustain her family. She lacked the business knowledge and resources to expand her green grocer stall into a stable source of income.
Through the program’s training, mentorship, and support, Mama Mark learned how to manage her finances, improve customer service, and source fresh produce at better prices. Today, her flourishing stall supplies fresh vegetables to households in her community, sustaining her family and giving her hope for the future.
