SAMEERA’S STORY
Sameera, 49 years old, is a widow and has become the sole provider for her three children after experiencing the tragedy of losing her husband. She resides in a poor neighborhood with her orphaned children, her eldest son who is married, along with his wife and child. They all live together in a very modest house devoid of even the most basic necessities they require. They rely on the income they receive from the National Aid Fund and occasional assistance from generous individuals.
Samira's house is in a dire state, and she lacks the means to maintain it or even provide for her children's needs. Through the efforts of Mohammad Abu Salim, the community contributor of the case and founder of the "Dawirha bil Khair" initiative, a thorough study was conducted about the family's situation after his visit to identify their basic and essential needs, considering the small size of the house and the circumstances of each family member.
