Mary had an unimaginably traumatic time following the death of her husband. After living in a refugee camp due to conflict, she returned home to find all her possessions burnt to the ground.
But Tearfund’s Transforming Communities training helped her rebuild her life by realising what was in her hands.
‘In the past, I had a lot of thoughts about who would support me, but now I realise I can work for myself.’
