Implement vocational courses for disadvantaged women and girls

There is a difference of approximately 16% between male and female literacy rates in Andhra Pradesh, India. While the male literacy rate was recorded at 75%, for females it was only 60%. The effect of this disparity is reflected in other statistics too, as the percentage of crime against women stands as the second highest.

Our project provides vocational training to women which, in turn, helps them to gain a sustainable livelihood.

We provide 150 women with training in various subjects, including leaf plate making, dressmaking, and pickle making. These skills help them procure jobs in small factories or start their own micro enterprises; bringing an additional income to women and their families.

We also provide vocational training to adolescent girls in 10 villages of Andhra Pradesh. This is in addition to imparting life-skills and sex education to them as well. Everything we work towards is to ensure these girls are affected in the most positive of ways.

We are raising money for our current group of 50 beneficiaries. These funds can change lives and provide them with a lifelong source of income.
