Story

Internet-literacy has become critical post the pandemic. Housewives in low-income households are the worst off, because even when there is a smart phone in the household, they do not know how to use it and hence do not have access to it either.


Lighthouse Communities Foundation has a 40-hour curriculum honed over the last 5 years, which enables housewives to be:


1. Digital Citizens: create their identity (mail id and social media accounts), learn about internet security, interface with the Government and apply for schemes and programs


2. Digital Customers: learn and practice cashless transactions, learn and practice the availing of online services such as banking, bill payments, shopping, ticket booking, applying for Aadhar cards and suchlike


3. Digital Learners: practice how to access information and 'self-learn' through Google, Wikipedia and YouTube.

For women who would like to go still further and earn money with the support of the internet, there is an additional curriculum that enables them to be Digital Earners. We expect atleast 50 women of the 300, to go for this option.

Earlier this week, we pitched for funding support to the Dolphin Tank - Living My Promise initiative (https://livingmypromise.in/dolphin-tank-livingmypromise-daanutsav-celebrations-2/) and have secured a promise of Rs. 2.5 Lakhs as 'matching funds'. Hence, every rupee that you donate will be matched by the Dolphin Tank, upto an amount of Rs. 2.5 Lakhs. The total amount required for digital empowerment for 300 housewives, is Rs. 5 Lakhs.

Please donate to support atleast one housewife to become digitally empowered. The cost per person is as low as Rs. 1600.

300 low income women in Pune, multiplied effect. Digital empowerment for Pune
