Dear Friends,
Thank you for your donations of USD 5967, which are helping young girls from poor and marginalized backgrounds get trained in diversified skills. AWARD Pakistan has initiated several income generation courses (make-up art, industrial stitching, mobile repair for girls, and computer basics), which have been started in its resource center in Faisalabad. AWARD has also initiated a course for young women to get trained in bike riding, as this initiative is a step towards independence. So far, 350 girls have been trained through the center and have entered the earning circle.
As more and more girls are getting enrolled in our courses, AWARD needs an extension in its building as it needs to build a training hall (for a capacity of 40 people) to train marginalized, school dropouts, and unskilled girls of Faisalabad in new trades.AWARD requires another USD 18,000 for this need. The training hall will be constructed with the following: 1) Financial Literacy; 2) Digital Freelancing 3) Jam making, 4) Pickle Making 5) Educational seminars 6) Traffic Rules 7) Life Skills; 9) Marketing and Digital Marketing Skills 10) Cookies and biscuit making 11) Commercial Cooking; 12) Toffee Making; and many more courses for the girls to sustain their livelihoods and support their families.
We would like to request that the GlobalGiving community support us in its completion to achieve our target of supporting 400 poor women and girls every year.
