Imagine the moment a doctor tells you that your husband won’t recover. Esther Wangui faced this devastating reality as she sat by her husband’s bedside, knowing their lives were about to change forever. Before his illness, Esther and her husband managed a household supported by her small business refilling and distributing LPG, complemented by his work as a public service driver. However, the financial strain of medical expenses led to the collapse of Esther’s business after her husband’s passing, leaving her to struggle alone to provide for their children’s basic needs.

Now, Esther stands at a crossroads, surrounded by empty gas cylinders that once symbolized their shared livelihood. With the support of this project, she revived her business, refilling 15 gas cylinders at the start. During this reporting period, Esther has made significant progress, having refilled 28 gas cylinders. Each day, she earns a minimum profit of KES 500, as her business thrives in the town. She plans to relocate to the town to operate more effectively.

“I am happy for this project; it has revived my daily income,” Esther shares. “Please send my most sincere gratitude to the people who support us, even though they may not know us personally. May God bless them abundantly.”
