Our Causes

We support women and children in rural India through training and education programmes. Tailoring training gives a woman the opportunity to lift herself out of poverty by tripling her wages and securing a reliable income. This in turn enables her to send her children to school and complete secondary level education. We are currently fundraising to build a training and education centre from which the whole community will greatly benefit.

After-school Tuition centres

These after-school education centres in the villages provide the poorest children with the opportunity to get support with their homework and to receive some basic supplies like good quality school bags. This is particularly important for children of illiterate parents as without support with their homework they fall behind at school and become disengaged with their learning.

Empowering Women Economically

Each woman we train in tailoring and provide with a sewing machine sees her income lifted three-fold and secures her independent, secure and sustainable work, free from exploitation. This permanently changes the lives and hopes of her and her children. We also organise self-help groups to encourage the women to support each other.
