KSWCT has a strong belief that
communities can develop and sustain if their citizens are adequately empowered
with knowledge and skill sets. In line with this, we have engaged in several
initiatives.

Trust. We are working to provide quality living through different vocational
education and social awareness programme to the underprivileged women in our
area. Our mission is to enhance Women’s
Economic status, Dignity and Decision making within their families.

create an environment for social change.
The specific area of work is to establish women’s self help group (SHG),
increase the income of poor women and improve the access to better health,
education and child labor reduction facilities.
Our responsibility towards women
empowerment with the progress of communities being dependent on the working
generation, Our Trust focused its initiatives on the welfare and well-being of
women from the sections of underprivileged society. The underlying objective
was to give them the opportunity to raise their standard of living.
Our Trust believes that empowering a
woman means empowering her whole family. We continues to support vocational
Training course in tailoring to promote self-sufficiency amongst
underprivileged women, especially girl student dropouts, widows, divorcees and
women from Below Poverty Line segment in and around the villages of Nadia,
Murshidabad, Hooghly etc.
During self counseling session, most of the
women showed enthusiasm in learning some skills to supplement their household
income. They showed interest in learning basic stitching skills and advance
tailoring, fashion designing, Creative art, Craft and more. To facilitate these
kinds of vocational training, we has joined hands with different women self
help groups in our area.
