Last August, Imran’s house was burned during the widespread mob violence against Christians in Jaranwala.

A Christian tailor, Imran worked from his home, where he stored his clients’ fabric. Unfortunately, he lost all his Muslim clients who demanded compensation for their destroyed cloth. 

Thanks to the gracious assistance of World Compassion Fellowship, he was able to restart his business and pay off his debts. 

Losing economic instability puts Christians at high risk of sliding into a cycle of poverty. Children may have to leave school to help provide for the family or families may borrow money from brick kiln factories. 

Restoring Imran’s livelihood is just one of the ways we assisted with recovery efforts in Jaranwala following the attacks, thanks to World Compassion Fellowship.
