Save lives of HIV Orphan Children in India

35 years old, Nandini (name changed) resides at Mulaj Village, in Osmanabad district. Currently she is living with 4 children including a son and three daughters.  A big crisis came into her life when she lost her husband due to coinfection i.e. HIV/AIDS and TB. After that her family members disowned her due stigma and disagreed to support her for sustenance. Thus, she started staying on rental house. She was suffering from illness and depression because of no support from family and all the responsibility of taking care of children came on her shoulder.

 She was struggling to fulfill the basic needs of her family, thus she started working as daily wage labour. She is very keen about the future of her children and their life, therefore she had shown interest in tailoring training for livelihood. She got trained by PRIDE India on tailoring and she was supported with a machine. Immediately she started her tailoring business in village and worked very hard to set up her business until she got a pool of customers. She could attract customers by delivering products on time and by adding new designs for blouses and dress, etc.  After that she expanded her work by initiating tailoring classes for training other women

Currently she is capable to take care of her children and fulfill all the basic needs of her family. Now her children are continuing education and also, she has started saving money in Bank which she is saving for her children future.  Her future plan is to expand her business by adding a advanced stitching machine.
