How One Woman’s Determination—and God’s Provision—Built a Thriving Business in Tanzania

Josephat, a Case Manager at Food For His Children (FFHC), works tirelessly to transform lives in Karatu, Tanzania. This is a story in his own words. He said it is one of the most heartwarming stories he’s witnessed, that of Miriamu.

‘Miriamu was just like any other resident of our village, struggling to make ends meet. However, her life took a turn when she got involved with FFHC. We provided her with the skills and knowledge she needed to grow her small shop into a thriving business. The journey wasn't easy, but Miriamu's determination coupled with the support from FFHC made it possible.

Today, Miriamu runs one of the biggest shops in our village. But her success doesn't stop at her doorstep. She has managed to provide employment opportunities for others in our community, contributing to the overall economic growth of our village. Her shop doesn't just sell items, it serves as a beacon of hope, showing everyone what's possible when you're equipped with the right skills and knowledge.

Miriamu's success story isn't just hers alone. It has influenced how we at FFHC approach our mission. Seeing the transformative power of providing resources and fostering faith, hope, and love, we are more committed than ever to enabling families to lead their communities out of poverty. Miriamu's story is a testament to the impact of our work. It's a story of resilience, empowerment, and community development.

Now, Miriamu's family sees a lot of changes both spiritually and economically. They are a living testimony of God's work through FFHC. And as we continue to serve, we look forward to writing more success stories like Miriamu's, transforming lives one family at a time.’
