Kulsoom Bibi along with her daughter started their own embroidery business from home with the initial loan amount of Rs. 20,000 from PMIC’s borrowers. With time and strong conviction and determination she has influenced the lives of 100 young women in her community by making them economically independent. She taught them the skill and helped them in establishing their own domestic workspaces. Today, these women with the help of PMIC and Kulsoom Bibi are successfully running their business and supporting their families and making a greater impact on society.
