Dear Global Givers,
We are delighted to share an update on our ongoing efforts to empower and uplift 50 women. Your unwavering support has played a crucial role in enabling these women to increase their income and enhance their financial stability.
As reported previously, with the help of extensive outreach programs and community engagement, 50 determined and ambitious women eager to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys have been carefully identified and selected. Among these women, Sunita Rani and Meeta Devi (names changed) ventured into the goatry and poultry business.
The absence of a reliable and sustainable source of income poses significant challenges for women like Sunita and Meeta. Prior to their involvement in our initiative, these women often faced financial instability and limited opportunities for economic growth. This lack of income severely impacted their lives and the well-being of their families.
Since receiving your generous contribution, Sunita Rani has achieved remarkable success. Starting with just four hens and four chickens, Sunita has leveraged her hard work and practical management skills to establish a thriving business selling eggs. On average, Sunita earns Rs. 15,000 ($181) monthly, making it possible to support her family, provide for her children's needs, and cover medical expenses.
Another remarkable entrepreneur, Meeta Devi, has gained financial independence by selling goat’s milk. Through goatry, Meeta has also upskilled herself with breeding techniques, animal care, and management. Through milk sales from her goat, Meeta's goatry business has enabled her to generate a monthly income of Rs 11,000 ($133) to help provide for her family.
On behalf of these hard-working women entrepreneurs, we extend our gratitude to all our donors who have played a pivotal role in supporting and empowering these women. We are dedicated to ensuring our initiative's long-term success and sustainability to uplift and empower women entrepreneurs in Rajasthan.
To achieve this, we recognize the critical importance of raising additional funds to support the current batch of women entrepreneurs and expand our reach to empower more aspiring women in the region. Together, we can continue to impact women's empowerment and create a brighter future for all.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Team iPartner India
