Microcredit Marvels: Empowering Women

                                  Setting up of a production unit at a Tribal village

With the support of GlobalGiving, we are happy to share that we have started our production unit at a tribal village, Varagapet, Villupuram District, Tamil Nadu. We plan to make bags of all kinds and uniforms.

Prime Trust is planning to adopt this village and initiate programs such as Evening School, Awareness Generation, Health programs, etc.,

We formed a women group who will be trained to make the products. They will also be given a microloan to buy the raw materials required and to meet immediate expenses.

We are now sourcing job work from companies. We hope that the women will be paid a decent wage and it will improve the economic status of their families.

Prime Trust, in association with Jyothi Eye Care Hospital, conducted a free Eye Screening Camp

 A free eye screening camp was conducted at Janani Home, Colas Nagar for the public by Prime Trust in collaboration with Jyothi Eye Care Hospital on 5th July 2022. Wide publicity was made to the local community about the opportunity.

Eye screening was done on children, men and women. For further treatment such as cataract surgery and other ophthalmic issues were referred to the Jyothi Eye Care Hospital. The medical team informed the community about the central government schemes available to the public. The local community was also informed about the special offers from the hospital extended through this camp.

More than 100 people benefitted from this camp. The arrangements were made by Mrs Mary, Program Manager, Mrs Nathali, Secretary and the Interns of Hindustan College of Arts and Science, Coimbatore.
