ASSET India partner Prajwala rescues, rehabilitates and trains sex trafficking survivors in printing plant operations. These young women are able to earn a living and lead reasonably normal lives. They provide stationery to hospitals, schools in impoverished areas, government offices and private companies.
ASSET India recently provided school supplies and stationery produced at this printing press to 10,000 marginalized children in the state of Maharashtra. Majority of the students are girls who face the risk of being trafficked if they stop attending school. Their parents are so poor that they cannot afford to buy school supplies for their children. The distribution of these supplies is undertaken by Umang Foundation,a very reputable non-profit organization
