Joseph Al-Atrash is 23 years old and lives with his family of three members in Beit Sahour in the West Bank. His workshop, where he repairs and leases industrial equipment, is a unique business in the area. “Since I started borrowing from UNRWA in 2015, I have received three loans to develop my workshop and have increased my business investment from $10,000 to $25,000.
