SMALL INITIATIVES, BIG IMPACT
Imagine living on almost no money a day! This is the reality for over one billion people around the world. Families struggle to source nutritious food for their children, often relying on just rice to satisfy hungry appetites. Without an income or business, without livestock or land to provide food, people from the poorest corners of the world have no ability to provide in the long-term for their families.Marasim aims to tackle this through food aid and livelihood programmes. Sometimes it is important to ‘give a man a fish’ and sometimes it is important to ‘teach him to fish’.Our livelihood programmes helps people to have their own small business we train them to have necessary skills of that business right from start to final execution and after execution also we help them to have sustainabe business. It is surprising how a little amount, well spent, can make a real long term difference to lives. Marasim’s livelihood programme does exactly that. Through our sustainable livelihood projects, we help poor and widowed families to live well and to live independently. Through gifts of small business grants, men and women are empowered to feed their families and to grow and sell their own produce; the income further helping to promote self-sufficiency and alleviate poverty. Help support this programme, and enable families to be self-sufficient!
