Trustees received a request to support a single woman with children, who were making ends meet by selling a Sri-Lankan food called string hoopers, with their limited kitchen facilities. Our investigation found that they were popular for their dishes and receiving regular requests from a local restaurant fora bulk order. However, due to her lack of kitchen space & equipment they were unable to fulfil these
orders.
We purchased her necessary equipment, including two gas stoves and cylinders, which enabled her
to increase her output and meet requirements for bulk orders - thereby increasing her earnings
threefold.
