Nine poorest women give up begging to become our THP beneficiaries.
Shaju Dewa, Sufiya Dewa, Mamata Dewa and six others begged to sustain themselves and their children. Each of them is widowed and has no one to depend upon. But things are different for them today. Today, each one of them is carving out new lives for themselves and their children. They are all beneficiaries of our CUF - THP Program – the program to graduate the poorest of the poor to mainstream microfinance. They are a part of this program since the last four months.
Today, each one of them has given up begging and is involved in non farm enterprises like goat rearing, cow rearing, paddy husking, junk food shop etc. They are also saving some amount of money every week.
We are very proud that we have been able to initiate such a positive change in the lives of our nine beneficiaries.
