Past Project: Vocational Training

It was decided to give training to women on tailoring and embroidery. The women beneficiaries could be married or unmarried, should have completed their minimum standard of education and be eager to learn new techniques and methods of today’s lifestyle.

Women from all the target villages were identified and given training in tailoring and embroidery. Twenty women were selected for each batch and they were trained for a minimum of two months. Only one woman from each village was selected for the training, with a second trainee from that village  selected for the next training. Two women instructors were appointed, one for teaching cutting and tailoring and the other for embroidery.

RELIEF OPERATIONS DURING DISASTER:
Though there is no agency funding for relief operations, KISES demonstrated its  sense of social responsibility and commenced its own relief operation in low-lying areas.

After studying all the villages which were affected by floods, KISES identified the five worst-hit and directed its operations in those villages. The most affected areas were South Chiruvuru Lanka, Edla Lanka, Regulanka, of Krishna District, and Voleru, of Guntur District.

KISES distributed a bed sheet, a saree, a towel, bread and water to each family, covering four villages. Each village had a minimum of 50 families and Voleru, of Guntur District, which was hit most severely, was home to 100 families.
