🌟 Success Story: From Homemaker to Entrepreneur — The Journey of Sajitha

 🌟 Success Story: From Homemaker to Entrepreneur — The Journey of Sajitha


📍  Beneficiary of KREDF Community Revolving Fund


Until recently, Sajitha, a 38-year-old homemaker from a small village near Perinthalmanna, had never imagined running a business of her own. With two children in school and a husband with irregular daily wages, managing household expenses was a daily challenge.


That changed when Sajitha became part of a women’s self-help group (SHG) supported by KREDF. Through regular meetings and training sessions, she learned about the interest-free revolving fund offered to members of the KREDF community.


With support from her group and approval from the local committee, Sajitha received an interest-free loan of ₹12,000 from the fund. Her goal? To start a small snack-making business from her home.
