Dear Friends,

Greetings from Azad India Foundation!

It is my pleasure to share our latest report via Global Giving on the progress of our project to provide sewing machine to a needy girl for self-reliance in Kishanganj district of Bihar. Thank you for your support and for empowering girls to rise out of poverty.

As part of the ongoing flood victims rehabilitation and livelihood support program, Azad India Foundation gave away sewing machines to Asma from the village Shafakatnagar, Hadisa from Rahmatpur, Shabnam from Kajlamani, Astana from Sathbolia and Mehnaz from the village Malbasti. They belong to the marginalized groups who were worst affected in Kishanganj's devastating floods and fighting for the survival even after so many months. The earnings from the sewing machines and stitching clothes will help them rebuild their lives. The girls are thankful to the donors and Global Giving for helping their families.

Azad India Foundation is running two sewing centers at the village Chattargach and Kajlamani where 40 girls are learning basic stitching and tailoring. It is six-month course following which a girl can start earning from her home. As most of the girls belong to marginalized sections of the community they are unable to buy machines. This project helps them to realize their dreams.

Thank you for giving chance to succeed! Your gift is making a big impact in not only their life but given hope others as well.

Do contribute to help us give life of dignity to more disadvantaged girls and please spread the word.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments
