Economically disadvantaged women in villages and urban slums of Krishna District lack education and employable skills; they migrate to cities in search of low-skill jobs. Wisdom Global Foundation has conducted baseline survey to identify skills needed in the job-market and has developed training programs for women and adolescent girls to stop them from leaving homes for bigger cities.
We have been providing 3-month training program on Tailoring & Embroidery to women every quarter. After completion of the training, each of the participants is given a free branded sewing machine and tool kit.
To encourage women empowerment, we assist them in establishing their unit, purchase of raw material and sale of finished products. We tie up with garment factories for supply of ready-made garments, Social Welfare Department for supply of school uniforms, wholesale cloth merchants for supply of women’s undergarments and baby clothes.
We request you to fund for sewing machine and tool kits for women who have completed the training program.
