-ITD (Gip) for project of carpet Child worker’s rehabilitation.
-Total fund for this year is about8lac rupees.
-They are not getting any fund for Education programs.

-I have asked Daulat Bhai for financial report of year
01-02.
4) Beneficiaries/target group: One part of
the project benefits primary school age children and the other benefits the
rural women through vocational training in a sewing training center. Most of
the women and children belong to a schedule caste/ tribe.
5) Define the Issue:
They are not getting any fund for Education programs
a)
There is no primary school in
the vicinity of the village. Establishment of one will promote education in the
area.
b)
The rural women are entirely
dependent on agriculture for their livelihood, which occupies them for only
about a fourth of the year. Training in sewing will allow them to supplement
their income throughout the year.
6) Primary goal for which we are supporting this project: The project is really two projects- one that establishes
the Burhanapur school to educate 200 students, and the second one that
establishes a training center for women to teach them to sew. It is in line
with Asha goals to further the education of under-privileged women and
children, especially in the rural areas.
7) Is it Education related: Yes, the education is of two categories: a) primary
education for rural children, and b) vocational training to women for income
generation in the village.
8) Will it be self-sufficient in the future?
Need more info to determine this
9) Primary Focus is tribal/rural Area: Yes
