In the green mountains of #AlMahwit, Abdo Saree had a simple idea and a big dream. He wanted to farm zucchini and vegetables on his land to earn a steady income for his family. The land was rich and his will was strong, but he faced one main problem: he had no money to turn his dream into reality.

Abdo did not give up. He knew that great ideas just need a start. He found the perfect partner in #NMF, a team that trusts people with good ideas. Abdo applied for his first funding. As soon as he got the money, he started working with great passion: he bought seeds, built a modern watering system, and got all the tools needed to start his farming business.

The land quickly gave back, and his first season was a huge success. But Abdo wanted to grow even more. He continued this successful partnership with #NMF and received more rounds of funding. This helped him transform his business. He expanded from growing just zucchini to adding cucumbers and peppers, doubling his harvest and becoming a strong supplier in the local market.

The best part of Abdo’s story is that he became a job creator. Today, his farm has grown big enough to give jobs to several workers from his village, helping local families earn a good living. Abdo showed what true success looks like: a big idea, the right loan, and non-stop hard work.

Abdo’s Message: "Don't say 'I have no money.' Say 'I have an idea,' and let microfinance give you the start. Start small, build your success, grow your business, and be the person who opens doors of opportunity for others."
