Empower Young Rural Women with Vocational Training

MSA - VTC has trained more than 2500 tribal and non-tribal students till date and we have an 80%  placement ratio. The average salary of these students is 6000rs to 6500rs/- month who are just 10th or 12th pass. Many students are earning up to 15000rs /-month and even more than that. 

Now we have expanded our placement and we have started placing students in different areas of Gujarat state like Ahmedabad & Rajkot. In Rajkot, they have started with the salary of 8000/- month and in Ahemdabad they have joined with the s  Every year we try to get 10% to 12% increment in students minimum salary.

These students are mostly tribals and coming from a rural area of Gujarat state where Sickle cell disease found very common. We do their sickle testing in the very first week when they joint this course and 80% of the students found sickle cell positive. We give iron, folic tablets, deworming tablets and also give them two shots of Hepatitis B vaccination.

When these students join us they are so raw that our first-day first session starts with toilet training as they don’t have toilets at home and many students have not seen toilets so they don’t know how to use it. Even like they don’t know which side door opens and in which direction they have to sit. We also give them training for personal hygiene and about cleanliness. Awareness about maintaining hygiene during their menstrual cycle and we also provide them with free sanitary pads.

We look after their overall development by giving them value education every day and develop their confidence to face the real world outside their home and village. After finishing the course they just don’t get a job but they became open-minded, self-confident financially independent women and contribute to the economic growth of their family.
