“I can now provide a better life for my six children and fix my damaged home”, said Tawfiq.
Due to the bad security situation in the area of Douma, Tawfiq and his family left Douma to the village of Ein Al-Tineh in Al Qutaifah area. Tawfiq has 28 years of experience in blacksmithing but employers used to pay him low wages. Therefore, to better his financial situation and guarantee his monetary benefits, he registered with the small grants program which is part of the vocational training department of #SARC-HSP funded by the #UNHCR.Syria and in a short period of time he succeeded in realizing his dream of becoming independent, furthermore he reinvested money to buy the needed equipment to grow his business.
