  • Since

    2018

CWN was registered in 2018 as non-profit voluntary service society. CWN was a need based awakening by a group of like-minded women to help the needy i Read moren times of urgency. Guntur and nearby districts’ socio-economic and educational conditions of women were so backward and had never experienced exclusive voluntary service or any of such development facilitating support for women, girls and children as of the other places in the district Guntur. Seeing the much backward conditions of the women and girls in the area, CWN thought and decided to support them and the area through a process of participatory aspects – collective exertion. Thus, since inception focusing on rural issues conducting studies and finding condign solutions to address them, CWN is facilitating development opportunities in a holistic and sustainable way. CWN has a mission, which is to capacitate and facilitate the women and children in the rural communities to have actions among themselves for their own development and to protect the environment. That’s the guiding principle and motivating factor for CWN to go forward even with its financial constraints to free women and girls from their own bondage of ignorance, inability and misfortunes. CWN since commencement productively carries out various activities/programmes/projects in the areas of Child Development, Education, Women Development, Forestry and Environment, Skill Development, Establishment of Enterprises, Awareness creation on life basics, Research & Documentation in rural issues, Rural livelihoods, Child Welfare & Rights, Agriculture, Health & Sanitation, Rural income generation, awareness creation on Acts/Rights etc. CWN intimately works with line departments, Govt. Agencies/organizations/departments and many and other likeminded voluntary institutions and well-wishers/social activists etc. The CWN invites voluntary partnership in its all activities and projects from women networks, women NGOs, CBOs, NPOs, CSRs and common people.
