Thank You Donors
Every rupee you donate in this campaign will be matched by a corporate donor partner and the Swades Foundation ensuring tripling of impact. The money raised will be used to engage a needy household into an income generation activity.
It begins with the selection of the right beneficiary - a ~150 member strong field team along with the Village Development Committees that we have created at hamlet level helps us reach out to the right and needy beneficiaries. Post identification, every beneficiary undergoes a rigorous training and certification process before they are engaged in a livelihood initiative. We also ensure a small contribution (<15% of the cost) is collected from the beneficiary to ensure their commitment and dedication. This contribution is further subsidized for the tribal communities, poorest of the poor and women headed households.
We continuously monitor and handhold the beneficiary, provide technical training, financial literacy training, exposure visits etc. to ensure successful outcomes of our interventions.
