For many years, Amina Bibi lived with her family in a small room inside her in-laws’ house. Life was difficult, and there was little space and no opportunity to grow.
Things began to change when she received a Small Housing Unit (SHU). This new house not only gave her family privacy and dignity, but also opened the door to new possibilities. Amina through SPPAP project team efforts was identified as landless and eligible on the basis of her poverty score. She became member of CO Karam Hussain Thatar of village Dandanot, union council Tranda Muhamma Panah of Tehsil Liaquatpur, District Rahim Yar Khan.
With her own space, Amina started keeping goats and livestock. From her first few animals, she worked hard and managed to sell three bucks for Rs. 60,000. With this income, her family decided to purchase a motorbike on installment, which made travel and work easier. Her husband, a skilled mason, could now reach work sites more quickly, while Amina continued to manage the livestock at home.
Step by step, the family’s life improved. Today, Amina owns five goats worth Rs. 120,000 and a cow with a calf worth Rs. 170,000. Her children, who once faced uncertainty, are now all going to school, giving hope for a brighter future.
