Summary

This project aims at promoting sustainable livelihood to 500 underprivileged slum women of Karimadom slum in Trivandrum. Training in handicraft making using natural fiber, training in cloth bag making, artificial jewelry making, stitching and embroidery and providing them with machinery to earn a living is envisaged. This project will better the living conditions of these women, help them educate their children and improve their social status Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
