Support HIV+ teens for Jr. College in Pune, India

Dear All.. development & progress of our kids..!

• development activity with the collaboration of ARISE…It is a platform for ambitious young generation who wants to became a successful entrepreneur. By the time our tailoring unit is taking shape and now there are many varieties of products available in Vijayashree Utilities. This is happening with the great guidance of the team ARISE.Theyprovided job opportunities to one of our children who have dropped out from the Manavya after 18 years.

• We have now started a new activity of making cakes. One of our staff has taught the girls how to make wheat cake with different flavors like vanilla, chocolate, orange etc. We are now considering taking orders from outside. We hope that girls can now bake order half to one kilo cakes and the customer will definitely like the cake made by girls. One day during the Christmas celebration, one of our staff baked a nice Christmas themed cake for the children and took them to the institution to give the children a nice surprise. The kids really enjoyed it. It's great to feel like someone made a cake out of love for you.

• Now the girls have started handling the workings of their tailoring unit independently as they now take orders on their own, give the customer a delivery date, they ensure that the order is completed within the given time frame. We are now considering hiring an external trainer to teach stitching some new products with new ideas. Hopefully in the near future they will start their own business and stand on their own feet to survive in the society.
