Training Space for 600 Poor Girls in Mumbai
Organization information
Vacha Charitable Trust
Location: Mumbai, India
Summary
A recent Gender Equality report has placed India at no. 132 in the world. Our project empowers 600 poor girls a year and thousands more thru outreach by training in life skills to become strong and active. Girls train in English, computers, photography, leadership and community work. They complete school and engage in social work . We need space for a permanent place for training, coordination and expansion to more slums. We are seeking 10% of the total cost, having collected 90 % already. 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.
