Volunteers Close

Is there a need for volunteers for your project?

Volunteers will be helpful in organizing women groups and enabling them to initiate income generating measures. Her competencies can also be utilized in promoting enrollment of adolescent-girls’ especially non school going and school drop outs for higher education and in convincing parents not to marry a girl at the age of 14 or 16. Local volunteers would be more effective to convince the parents as they will understand the local languages and mind-set of the parents. International volunteers will help us in documentation and preparing reports.

In what other ways people can contribute at the project? For example know how, expertise, skills, advice

People may help StriShakti in documentation and annual report preparation as we are weak on this aspect.
