Thank you CYEN

Beneficiary
My household was enrolled by CYEN in January, 2016 in their LOPIN1 project and I was fortunate to be amongst the people who were empowered with business start-up material. They supported me with 2 bags of rice, 1 full back of beans, 1 full bag of garri and other food stuff which I used to improve my market that had gone down. With the help of the empowerment, I was able to start saving with VSLA in our community as they advised me. Now my business is growing and I am making more money to take good care of my four children. Thank God for CYEN. May God bless them for me
