ESAF Voice from the Field: Building Hope for Marginalized Workers in Palestine

This success story focuses the Palestinian Investment Partnership (PIP) and their support small- and medium-sized enterprises in the West Bank that have the greatest potential to create jobs and mitigate the restrictive reliance of the local economy on the Israeli market. In particular, the story focuses on Al Han'a Sewing Business, a successful social enterprise that employs mainly women and the physically challenged and it's receiving a $150,000 grant to match the owner's existing commitment of nearly $200,000 to purchase another 75 sewing machines and build a new facility.
