Programs

Program Text

Women Self Help Groups Formation Program

Through the Women Self-Help Group (SHG) Formation Program, we empower women by encouraging them to form groups of 10-20 members from the same community and economic background. These groups collectively produce items such as frocks, salwar-kurtas, uniforms, jewelry, handicrafts, pickles, and papads, enabling them to earn an income. Additionally, we guide them in saving for their future, accessing banking facilities, and exploring opportunities for starting their own businesses or finding local employment. This initiative fosters financial independence, skill development, and self-reliance among women, transforming their lives and contributing to community growth.

1. Training and Capacity Building: Participants undergo training to become eligible for bank linkage.

3. Skill Development: Members receive skill training from local training institutes.
4. Credit Access: Groups borrow funds to establish their micro-enterprises.
