Women Empowerment Program

Since its inception, EDISAN TRUST has primarily conducted its community activities through Self Help Groups (SHGs), which are integral to all our projects. These SHGs receive training to develop good banking habits and understand the significance of small savings. The program also includes education on book-keeping and leadership skills for key members. By empowering women through these initiatives, we enable them to manage finances, make informed decisions, and take on leadership roles in their communities. This approach not only strengthens the financial independence of women but also contributes to their overall empowerment. The trust believes in fostering a culture of savings and financial literacy to uplift marginalized communities. The training helps them develop self-sufficiency, improving their economic status. Through these efforts, women are better equipped to drive sustainable change in their communities.
