 * Abeer Abu Ghaith is a Palestinian woman who was born in a Palestinian camp in the late 1980s. She lived in that Palestinian camp in Jordan until she was 12. Then she moved back in Palestine territory with her family. After graduating with the honors from a Palestinian university, she started to teach in campus. But certain male students refused to learn from her. Then she found online tutoring where she learned that gave her the means to start a business. Later on she attended a leadership program for women entrepreneur at Harvard Kennedy School. Growing up in a poor environment, Abeer observed the way older women lived, and realized that these women had dreams they wanted to achieve but they always needed someone to help them. And since she did not want to rely on anyone, she pushed herself through all the challenges to get a better life. Living in Gaza which has a very unstable and tough environment, these challenges motivated her to move forward and to help other women. Her business gave jobs to 360 Palestinian men and women, she teaches her students from her computer because Israel prevents Palestinian to travel between West bank and Gaza. At the End because of the things she has realized through technology, his dad is proud of her.
