Our Women Empowerment Programs: Building Skills & Independence

1. Vocational Training

Our NGO provides hands-on vocational training in areas like tailoring, computer skills, and handicrafts to help women in Chennai become self-dependent. These programs increase the prospects of job opportunities for women in rural areas or underserved communities. It also contributes to the overall employment rate of women in Chennai.

2. Entrepreneurship and Microloans

We support aspiring women entrepreneurs’ dreams by providing microloans and business mentoring opportunities. Our programs have helped women improve their existing small businesses or start a new one, like tailoring, retail, etc. With training and advice for financial growth, we help women overcome challenges and achieve financial freedom.

3. Education for Dropout Girls

We recognize education as a basic right of every individual. Our NGO and women empowerment programs focus on providing education for school dropout girls. With this education for women initiative, SKF Foundation aims to break the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, gender inequality, and early marriage, which gives every woman a fair chance in their life.

4. Health & Hygiene

Our health and hygiene programs are focused on improving a woman’s health in underserved communities that don’t have access to proper healthcare. As an NGO for women empowerment, we conduct regular health checkups, education about disease, menstrual hygiene awareness campaigns, and more that prioritize their well-being.

5. Legal & Emotional Support

We provide legal and emotional support to women facing domestic violence, workplace harassment, or other issues in Chennai. Our counselors and legal experts provide guidance and counseling services in a confidential and compassionate environment. We help women understand their rights and build emotional resilience to take the right action.
