SUBHYEH’S STORY
Subhyeh, 55 years, has known the taste of loss and the hardship of life since losing her husband in 2023. With his passing, she lost the pillar she relied on to raise, care for, and feed their children.
A mother of eight, seven daughters and one son, she has borne the full weight of responsibility alone amid severe living conditions and an almost nonexistent income. She has no stable source of earnings and relies entirely on whatever charitable aid she receives to secure food and the most basic needs for her family.
Despite her hardships, Subhyeh remains steadfast. Every day, she struggles to ensure her children have at least a minimum level of dignity and dreams of a day when their situation will improve and they will feel safe.
Her story is not just one of poverty, it is a testimony to a mother’s patience as she fights for her children, living each day with faith that goodness still exists and that those who sow compassion will find helping hands.
