Hafiza is a beneficiary of @CARE's poultry project in #Afghanistan. She lost her husband, a fuel tank driver, in an explosion in 1991. She also lost three of her four sons, one of which died in the war.

Hafiza started in the @CARE poultry program two years ago. She sold 70 of her chickens to pay for the funeral of one of her sons. She has 17 chickens left, which produce four eggs per day. She hopes to build her flock again to 100 chickens so she can support her remaining five children. #WidowsDay
