The project was supported and grew with the SVP grant since 2019. It has empowered and changed the lives of close to 300+ women, the positive results of this compounded to 1500 families and communities. They can earn basic income & become self-sustained with the help of invested grants. Projects are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Goals targeted to be achieved by 2030.
Story of success
Several connections with potential customers have been facilitated from by our Lead Partner Ms. Devina Salarpuria. Trainers for workshops ranging from financial literacy to digital marketing; from the fight against domestic violence to career prospects and motivational sessions have been organised. The youth cohort led by Youth Mentor Ms. Sanskriti Junjuhnwala has done a great job of imparting financial literacy skills to the beneficiaries, a result of which two self-help groups have been formed very recently.
To encourage entrepreneurship, a three month grassroots entrepreneurship development programme has also been conducted to help 20 women entrepreneurs grow and scale their work. SVP Kolkata, in partnership with YFLO Kolkata under YFLO Gives helped support the digital education of 54 children during the pandemic.
