This project trained 50 female petty traders, most of whom are primary breadwinners responsible for their children’s education, healthcare, and daily needs, in financial literacy, health, and GBV awareness. ₦2.5 million in business grants was disbursed, and mentoring and monitoring boosted business growth by 20–40%. Urgent funding is needed to sustain these women-led enterprises, expand economic inclusion in Mile 12 Market, and secure livelihoods for families while strengthening community business networks and women’s financial empowerment.
