Onze missie

De levensvoorwaarden en ontwikkelingskansen in onze Nederlandse cultuur zijn veel groter dan die in het binnenland van India. Wij willen met onze stichting een bijdrage leveren aan verbetering van de levensomstandigheden door concrete, kleinschalige, toetsbare projecten te ondersteunen in een afgebakend gebied in Centraal India. Ook uw hulp is daar hard nodig!

Nodig ons uit

Wij hebben de afgelopen jaren veel kennis en ervaring opgedaan over India; het leven op het platteland, de problemen en mogelijke oplossingen in de vorm van projecten. Wij zijn graag bereid voor groepen van scholen of verenigingen – geheel vrijblijvend – een presentatie te verzorgen.

Project: Stitching Unit, Harratola, Mandla, Madhya Pradesh, India

At Harratola, the propose project area a Community Organization program was going on for the last few years. Under this program number of Women Self Help Groups are formed and are functioning well. They had been always discussing about some program by which they can build up their economic standard. So this project was envisaged, so that we can give them training in tailoring, other than giving direct financial help, so that they can earn their income by doing some work regularly. So with this project we plan to put up a Stitching unit which will initially train 25 girls, who will later train others as well as work in this stitching unit and earn their income as well as help the centre to earn some income for its maintenance too.

Period of the Project: August 1st 2013 End date: July 31st 2014

One stitching unit with 10 machines for various stitching will be established. 25 girls will be trained in the first year by two professional tailors and get additional income of Rs.1500.00 per month. The cooperative society of the place gets a profit of 10% for the dress materials produced through its sale.

The activities will result in a monthly profit of Rs.3000.00 for the centre.

25 women initially will be taught to stich petticoats, skirts, blouse, inner wears, banyans, salwar suits, trousers etc. In the next stage they can either start their own units or can continue stitching at the center where raw materials will be provided and finished materials will be sold out. The women who are engaged in the work will be remunerated. The profit earned, after remuneration will be shared by the center as well as of the Cooperative who will facilitate of finished goods.

The final goal of the project is to get financial self-dependency of the women of the project area.

After the project period the program will continue by itself monitored by the Sisters and Cooperative society of the place.

The Cooperative Society will play an active role in getting raw materials and in selling the finished goods.

Total amount required for this project: € 5800.00, financed by Cordaid and Namasté India, each for 50%
