Ibrahim, a devoted father and husband, hails from the village of Qattinah. Responsible for a family of seven, his days were filled with caring for his four young daughters, his wife Roula, and his elderly mother. Life has been harsh on him, but he persevered as a farmer, relying on his land as their sole source of sustenance.
Tragedy struck during the ravages of war when his precious olive trees, along with his small house, were mercilessly consumed by flames. Over 120 olive trees and 437 grapevines were reduced to ashes, robbing him of his livelihood. To compound his misfortune, all his agricultural equipment was lost too.
Undeterred, he sought to rebuild his life and provide for his family. His land, once fertile and abundant, needed a boost. He dreamed of expanding the planted area and increasing production to secure a better future. However, his limited water sprayers proved inadequate for irrigating the entire expanse. At times, he had to borrow sprayers from his kind-hearted neighbor to sustain his crops.
With determination in his heart, Ibrahim turned to the Micro Projects Program for assistance. Recognizing his commitment and potential, he applied for essential resources: sprayers, fertilizers, and seeds. His aim was to rehabilitate and replant the land, breathing life back into the once-thriving olive farm.
As he awaited the program's response, hope flickered in his eyes. He knew that with a helping hand, his dreams could become a reality. He envisioned a future where his family would flourish, where his daughters could receive education and care, and where Roula's health would be stable with consistent access to medication.
In Ibrahim's heart, the flame of resilience burned bright, fueled by the love he held for his family and his unyielding belief in a better tomorrow.
