“I am the youngest one in the group”.

Lalita, 35DSC_0559, is the most senior in learning stitching. She saw the classes going on in the village. She approached for herself and joined the classes immediately. Since the time she joined the classes she never skipped any of the class. That’s the reason why she was able tocomplete her classes so early and now she practice her skills on neighbours and she is planning on taking projects on.

She needs more practice before getting into freelancing work. Probably after a few weeks later she might start doing this for her living. She wanted to be the other person to bring more money home.DSC_0557

So somebody from her village one day came running and said whether she was interested in stitching, mehendi or dancing but she opted stitching. Now she is almost half way through in completing her diploma. She is considered to be the most shy but regular and obedient student.

A message from the founder

Pratima Naithani

Founder,
I always had thought to do something about the society. I knew sitting home just by saying we need to change won’t help rather we should do something about it. So i thought of opening an NGO where i can do anything and everything that is in my hands to do something for the society.
I have always felt education for people below the poverty line is just not enough but money is more important for them. So i thought starting courses that can help them earn and move forward with their lives, families and money.
So help us join in the activities and events that we keep doing soo that we keep motivating them and keep doing things for them. We will keep our efforts always flowing until we achieve what we want from the society.
