CASE STUDIES
A mehendi training Course brings a new perspective in the lives of less privileged girls
SRLC conducted a mehendi course in Mumbai for a batch of 26 less privileged college girls. In less than a year, 3 of these girls received their first mehendi order. The mother of one of the girls was in tears when her daughter handed over her first hard-earned money. She expressed her gratitude to SRLC for giving her daughter this valuable opportunity especially as she had lost her father and the family needed this support.
In a similar initiative, a mehendi competition was held at the same college where the winning students were subsequently sponsored for advanced training course at a renowned institute. This initiative will go a long way in making less privileged girls become self-reliant and help them carve a future for themselves in the art of mehendi.
TESTIMONIALS
“We don’t need physical things. I love the time we spend with all of you when you come here. I am so overwhelmed. I get wonderful sleep because I feel that my children have spent time with me. You have touched my heart. You are like my children; I will not forget this till the end of my life.”

REPORTS
An inspirational success story of less privileged women from the slums of Mumbai
Women from the slums of Jari Mari, Mumbai turned their new-found passion for mehendi into their profession! SRLC joined hands with Jagruti Kendra, a social organisation which works with self-help women groups, to organise a mehendi training course for women from the slum colonies of Jari Mari. Participants in the course ranged from enthusiastic young girls to middle aged women home-makers. Over a 6 month period, SRLC volunteers taught them the art of mehendi. Towards the culmination of the course, SRLC organised a competition for the students, judged by renowned mehendi artists. Extremely impressed with the quality displayed, the judges sponsored the winners’ training to augment their skills at their mehendi institute.
