Women at SKHM become entrepreneurs
Thank you again for your donation to Global Fund for Children’s anti-trafficking project! You’re directly helping trafficked survivors and their children in Kolkata and Kathmandu to get education, therapy, and other skill-building support, through our local partners South Kolkata Hamari Muskan(SKHM) and Center for Awareness Promotion(CAP).
SKHM is transforming the trafficked girl’s world from violence and exploitation into one of independence and entrepreneurship. SKHM girls and women go through rehabilitation and reintegration that is enhanced with life-skills training.
One of SKHM’s newest initiatives, called Muskan’s Mukhorochois, is a special food business venture that instills practical knowledge, plus, the indispensable benefit of self-confidence and belief in the woman’s own brighter future.
The women behind the kiosk in the first photo are selling their own samosas and chai tea through Muskan’s Mukhorochok.
In addition to helping women survivors, SKHM and CAP recognize that children of survivors have been severely traumatized, too, so they adapt events and activities that provide lighter moments for younger ones. It’s an opportunity to just be kids.
SKHM holds an annual “Exhibition for Tiny Tots” art show for children of SKHM moms, ages 3 to 6. The little artists are always thrilled to display (and show off!) their artworks. SKHM sent the photos below of their recent show.
Many thanks again for your generosity and for being with us to make sure
all children, like those served by SKHM and CAP, are safe, strong, and valued.
We’ll keep you informed about progress of this project. And if you have any comments or questions, contact me at tmokrzycki@globalfundforchildren.org.
