Vaicharik Jagran Mission Trust (regd.) was established in 2015 with the aim to make every woman self-reliant and empowered. We organize smart classes for women on different subjects such as the use of digital world, beauty career, jewelry design for cottage industry, making useful things from waste, designing rangoli at home, preparing mocktails, training classes for yoga, bakery and microwave courses etc. Apart from this, we organize handmade exhibitions for women so that they can get a chance to explore their skills. To improve the prisoners’ skills, we
provide them products with which they can get creative, like making showpieces out of soap, which can be sold by exhibiting them in the fair. We invited social media experts and organized workshops in schools and colleges so that the awareness can be created among students regarding the impact of social media. Financial support was also provided to stop the female feticide by us. My achievements include being awarded Moorkhanand 2016 from Sanskaar Bharti as a social worker, Kanya Surakchha award from Hindi daily Hindustan and UP Government, Pt Deendyal Award and Ur Celebration 2017 award as social worker. For the public awareness of cleanliness, garbage dustbins were distributed to shopkeepers in Balkeshwar Mela. My organization has organized and awarded various competitions each year for the prevention of slum huts and orphan children. Particularly, blood donation camp was organized for women in which almost every woman donated blood. So far, about 25 to 30 ideas have been organized on different issues for the awareness of the society and about 1500 women participated.
