About MH’s Livelihood Programme
Muslim Hands Livelihood Projects are designed to empower the individual into training and work which will give them an independent, sustainable and long-term income. MH has been empowering people in the developing countries to become self-sufficient and independent earners. The organisation is dedicated to serving the most vulnerable people across the world by addressing the root causes of poverty and empowering communities.
