SAVE A DURGA THIS DUSSEHRA

By Mounita Ghosh | Senior Manager, PR & Corporate Communications

Dear Friends,

While global citizens all around the world celebrate Dussehra, one of India’s grand festivals, there is one episode of violence against women every 20 minutes in India. This year, as Dussera coincides with DAAN Utsav or the Joy of Giving, our TASK FORCE worked tirelessly to identity and support 100 stricken survivors of trafficking, between 18 to 26 years, near the Indo-Bangladesh border, 100 young women who currently entangled in poverty trap, riddled with financial debts, and vulnerable to drugs and forced early marriages.

Our TASK-FORCE vetted and verified the backgrounds of these 100 young girls who are struggling with several threats and high food insecurity. With an aim to give them back a life of dignity in their most vulnerable disaster, our SAVE A DURGA THIS DUSSEHRA initiativerequests your URGENT support to help us equip these at-risk girls by providing them with new job-skill training in a safe-and-secured environment followed by a stable livelihood.

While we prepare them to earn their own bread, our emergency response would be providing them with necessary counselling and job-training till the time they get an income-flow. ANUDIP, through its BEST (Building Entrepreneurs to Stop Trafficking) program, will enable these disadvantaged women and girls to find viable and respectable lives and livelihoods.
