Empowering Women to Stand on their Feet

CFI Charitable Trust advocates women development and empowerment. Be it the society or be it home, women have always proved to be a better responsibility holder.

But our culture and oppressive gender stereotyping force women to be confined to home to do household chores. But with determination women are  able to make remarkable success. That is the global experience. Our country also  has women shining in every sphere of life.

But on the contrary women are ill-treated, molested, raped, humiliated and deprived of their rights and dignity, not only in public but also inside her own home. Change of perspective and mind-set   are required  to bring about  change in the status of  women and their place in society. It is basically the question of gender  justice.

Women are the real transformers at home or society. Empowering women to realize their potential and worth will ignite the passion in them to make a discovery of themselves and what they are able to do. The interventions of CFI Charitable Trust centre on this ideology. Awareness generation, community mobilisation and collectivisation are the means towards developing women as the harbingers of change in society.

Women are given training in tailoring, making of greeting cards, folders, skirts, flower vase, tea coaster and handkerchief. The goal is to make them independent and financially secure by equipping them with a trade that fetch them an income. Hundreds of women have been aided to stand on their feet capable of bringing up  their children on their own.

CFI Charitable Trust not only trains women but also provides them the resources to set up small business once they complete the training with us. This not only leads to financial independence but also boosts the confidence of the womenfolk who normally are considered illiterate and unemployable.

We focus on women who are most vulnerable and economically weak as widows, deserted women, divorced and orphans who fall prey to bonded labour, trafficking and sexual exploitation.
