From September 2013 to April 2014, the fourth<br />
and final milestone of the WE Project took<br />
place, wherein the final goal of empowering<br />
3,000 women was successfully reached. A<br />
greater quantity and quality of post-course<br />
initiatives were conducted including: formal<br />
SHG formations, securing international<br />
orders and job placements for graduates,<br />
and holding advanced workshops in financial<br />
literacy, personality development, and health<br />
awareness in each center. The final analysis of<br />
survey and interview data, and an assessment<br />

Milestone 4 Highlight: Collectively the graduates of the Women <strong>Empowerment</strong> Project have earned over Rs. 1,106,068, within three months<br />
of graduation. To date, the WE Project has helped 400 graduates enroll in Micro Enterprise Self Help Groups (MESHG), which give the graduates<br />
collective power to undertake businesses and access financial resources. The uniqueness of our MESGH model is the focus placed on income<br />
generating activities, and profit sharing that will enable equal access to a common fund of resources.<br />
