MIRA - A Brand New Initiative By The Fatima Bint Mohamed Bin Zayed Initiative Officially Launches

MIRA, a social enterprise of the Fatima Bint Mohamed bin Zayed Initiative (FBMI), which supports less fortunate women in Afghanistan has officially launched. To inaugurate the launch, MIRA has unveiled a special collection of premium dried fruits, nuts and saffron this Ramadan and Eid Al Fitr.

For the past ten years, FBMI has been working hard to provide the women of Afghanistan with various sources of income to maintain the unity of the Afghan family and livelihood. During the ten year journey, FBMI has created permanent and sustainable differences, and as a result came MIRA.

The MIRA team have travelled across Afghanistan and built trusting relationships with hard-working, vulnerable female farmers. They are strong and independent and make a meaningful contribution to their economy, and MIRA has given these women a platform to finally be seen and heard, in order to inspire others. The Initiative has hired over 8,000 Afghan women with 35 percent of these women being widows, making them the sole bread winner of their families.

Those looking for the perfect gift during the holy month are encouraged to shop with MIRA and give more than a gift this year. By purchasing one of MIRA’s delightful gift boxes, people will be able to help and support a community of devoted women who farm and produce exquisite products.

Filled with a mix of the best-selling dried fruit and nuts all in one beautifully packaged box.
