Faridabad/Delhi : Graduate students involved in our SANKALP AVSAR (Skill Acquisition and Knowledge Awareness for Livelihood Promotion) tailoring project in Palwali Village, Faridabad, recently had a unique opportunity to showcase and sell their meticulously crafted handmade products. This opportunity arose during the Guru Purnima celebrations held at the Mata Amritanandamayi Math in Delhi’s Vasant Kunj.
The event served as a platform for the participating Self Help Groups (SHGs) — namely Amrit SHG, Priya SHG, and Saraswati SHG — to exhibit their creations. These SHGs are integral parts of our initiative aimed at empowering individuals through skill development and fostering entrepreneurship among local communities.
For the graduate students, this event not only provided a venue to display their talent and hard work but also offered them a chance to interact with a broader audience and potential customers. Such initiatives are crucial in promoting sustainable livelihoods and economic independence among marginalized communities, thereby contributing to their overall empowerment and well-being.
By participating in events like the Guru Purnima celebrations at prominent venues such as the Mata Amritanandamayi Math, these students not only gain exposure but also build confidence in their craft and entrepreneurial abilities. This experience is part of our ongoing efforts to create sustainable change at the grassroots level and uplift communities through education, skill development, and economic opportunities.
