This year in February 2009 we started a new program for women to provide empowerment and employment

 
There are four components to our womens’ wing which operates from 12:30 pm to 3:00 pm:
 
 
Training in local trades: The women are taught skills like beautician training, tailoring and making handicrafts. We specialize in making products out of recycled, eco-friendly materials. We plan on selling our products on our website, through local fairs, fashion shows and also set up retail links for international sales. We plan on opening up our own parlor for women living in the slums and our trained beauticians will provide services at a subsidized rate
 
 
Healthcare training:  The women are training to become “anganwadi workers” (rural health care workers). We plan on establishing a clinic in which our workers will take care of the basic health and dental needs of the slum population
 
 
Playschool teacher training: The women are trained to become daycare teachers
 
 
R.A.D (Rape, aggression, defense) training: Batches of our women are given a one month RAD training to make them physically confident and strong in facing issues like domestic violence
