Our Vision for Empowered Women

We envision a world where every woman has:

• Financial Independence: The ability to earn a sustainable livelihood and make her own financial decisions, free from dependency.
• Social Equality: The respect and equal opportunities to participate in all aspects of community life, from the household to the village council.
• Access to Resources: The right to education, health services, clean water, and sanitation, ensuring her well-being and that of her family.
• Leadership and Voice: The confidence to speak up, lead her community, and have her voice heard in decisions that affect her and her family.

Our Programs and Initiatives

Grama Jyothi Society implements a range of targeted programs designed to address the multifaceted challenges women face in rural communities.

1. Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and Microfinance We facilitate the formation of women-led Self-Help Groups (SHGs), which serve as a powerful platform for mutual support and financial inclusion. Through these groups, women save money together and access micro-loans for various needs, from starting a small business to meeting household expenses. This program empowers them to become entrepreneurs, manage their finances, and build a collective voice within their communities.
2. Vocational Training and Skill Development We provide hands-on training in various trades to equip women with marketable skills. Our programs include:

• Tailoring and Handicrafts: Training in sewing, embroidery, and crafting local products, which enables women to create their own businesses.
• Computer Literacy: Basic computer and digital skills to help women access government schemes, manage finances, and connect with the wider world.
• Poultry and Livestock Rearing: Practical training in agricultural livelihoods that can be managed from their homes, providing a reliable source of income.

3. Health and Hygiene Awareness Our initiatives prioritize the wellness of women and girls by promoting better health practices and access to essential hygiene resources.We organize workshops on menstrual hygiene, maternal and child health, and family planning. We also work to improve access to clean drinking water and sanitation facilities, which are crucial for the health and dignity of every woman.
4. Leadership Development We encourage women to take on leadership roles within their SHGs and communities. Through training sessions, we build their confidence and equip them with the skills needed to advocate for their rights, participate in village governance, and become agents of change.
