Small grants from USAID helped equip about 7,200 people from villages in conflict-affected Northern Pakistan with the tools they needed to re-start their livelihoods, like livestock, seeds, and fertilizers for farmers, and tool kits for plumbers and carpenters, and sewing machines for tailors and seamstresses.
