Project Description Region: Asia Country: India Location: Visakhapatnam Total Budget: $30,000 Area of Focus: Community economic development INK Foundation approaches humanitarian work with excellence and intelligence. We do not take our work lightly because every life matters to us. INK Foundation believes that social enterprise projects have the potential to create real social change and address issues related to poverty in individuals and communities. Project COURAGE are set up under INK Foundation to train women who are in dire need of sustainable resources. In order to change the status quo, COURAGE will rehabilitate women rescued from sex trafficking, prostitution, slavery and poverty and provide training, skills in sewing, embroidery, dress making, handmade accessories etc. As we use fashion to empower women and give them an opportunity to work and make a honest and honorable living, 100% of the profits will go back into rescuing and rehabilitating more women and children.
