A group wedding of six survivors of trafficking is planned for the 10th of March 2019.
These girls were victims of commercial sexual exploitation and were admitted to our therepeutic community through a court order. After providing a safe environment for them to heal and recover their dignity they were economically empowered with livelihood skills and employment opportunities. As per the provisions of the law the girls were released from the safe home as per a court order. The girls lived in group homes or independently. In due course they found a partner of their choice and came back to the organization seeking for support to solemnize their marriage.
In accordnace to our organizational protocol, antecendent check of the boys was done and verified. The families were invited to the Prajwala Base Camp to work out the details. After a lot of permutations and combinations 10th March was fixed for the D Day.
The entire Prajwala family has been delegated to organize the wedding and each team has been entrusted with tasks. The celebrations will begin on 8th March with bridal ceremony continued by a Sangeet on 9th March and the actual wedding on 10th March.
Prajwala wishes to thank all our supporters and collaborators who have made this possible for us.
