Our Purpose
Livelihood Development
At Shreemeenamaa Foundation, we believe that true empowerment begins with economic independence. Through our Livelihood Development initiative, we help individuals — especially women, youth, and marginalized communities — gain the skills and resources needed to earn a sustainable income and lead a life of dignity.
We work at the grassroots level to identify untapped potential, provide practical skill training, and create linkages to job opportunities, self-employment, and micro-enterprises.
Key Initiatives Include
Vocational Skills Training
Offering hands-on training in tailoring, beauty and wellness, computer literacy, handicrafts, and other income-generating skills tailored to community needs.
Formation of Women Self-Help Groups (SHGs)
Helping women come together in groups to save, access micro-loans, and start group-based enterprises — building financial independence and mutual support.
Entrepreneurship & Micro-Business Support
Guiding aspiring entrepreneurs with business training, seed funding, mentorship, and access to local markets to start and grow small businesses.
Youth Career Development Programs
Equipping young men and women with soft skills, digital literacy, and job-readiness training to improve employment prospects and build sustainable careers.
Rural & Agro-based Livelihood Support
Empowering farmers and laborers with modern farming techniques, collective farming models, and market linkages to increase rural incomes.
Why It Matters:
Livelihood is more than income — it's empowerment, identity, and hope. When individuals have the means to support themselves, they become confident contributors to their families and communities. Livelihood development is the key to breaking cycles of poverty and creating lasting change.
