Empowering
Rural 35 Women through Skill Development Certificate Distribution Ceremony by
Vimukti"
Vimukti
Pothnal proudly organized a Certificate Distribution Program on July 11, 2025,
at Rajalabanda village, Manvi Taluk, to honor the women who successfully
completed a five-month free sewing training course. This initiative is part of
Vimukti s ongoing mission to empower rural women with practical skills that pave
the way to financial independence. The program was graced by Mr. Jayashil
Dotharbandi, Coordinator of Vimukti, who highlighted the significance of such
training programs in transforming the lives of marginalized women by offering
them sustainable livelihood opportunities through tailoring. Chief Guest Mr.
Kashav Nayak from Rajalabanda appreciated Vimukti's dedicated efforts in
promoting women s economic empowerment and encouraged the trainees to utilize
their skills confidently and become role models for others in the community.
Around 35 women trainees received their course completion certificates, a proud
moment that was both motivational and symbolic of their determination. The
presence of the trainer Mrs. Mariyamma, along with enthusiastic trainees and
community members, added warmth and energy to the event. This ceremony marked
yet another milestone in Vimukti s commitment to building a more equitable and
self-reliant rural society, where women are skilled, confident, and economically
empowered.
Access
to healthcare is a basic human right, yet many poor families cannot afford even
a simple checkup or necessary medicines. Understanding this urgent need, Vimukti,
Pothnal has been regularly organizing free medical camps in the rural villages
of Manvi Taluka, Raichur District. In the latest camp, 165 local patients
received free medical checkups and doctor-prescribed medicines. Most patients
were found to be suffering from chest infections, joint and muscular pain,
seasonal flu, skin allergies, high blood sugar, gastrointestinal issues, and
other common illnesses. These camps bring hope and healing to people who
otherwise lack access to medical care. Vimukti continues to serve the most
vulnerable, ensuring that healthcare is not a privilege, but a right for all.
During
the months of May and June 2025, the Vimukti Pothnal team actively visited the
targeted villages to identify and support economically poor and marginalized
families. The primary goal of these visits was to motivate and empower village
residents to tap into various government welfare schemes available for their
benefit. The staff provided door-to-door awareness, training sessions, and
personalized handholding support to help people understand the eligibility
criteria, documentation process, and application procedures for schemes related
to housing, pensions, health cards, education, and livelihood support. Many
villagers were encouraged and accompanied to visit government offices to
initiate or complete their applications. In addition to this, the team conducted
awareness campaigns on climate change and environmental conservation. Villagers
were sensitized on the importance of: Avoiding the use of plastic, preventing
deforestation, Planting saplings to improve greenery and sustain a healthy
environment. These efforts aimed to foster a sense of responsibility among the
local communities toward ecological preservation and sustainable living. Vimukti
Pothnal continues its commitment to strengthening rural communities through
awareness, empowerment, and environmental action.
Vimukti
Pothnal successfully conducted an intensive training program for 20 economically
disadvantaged women from its targeted villages under the UDYAMI initiative. The
primary objective of the program is to empower rural women, aged 18 45 and
belonging to BPL (Below Poverty Line) families, by equipping them with practical
skills for self-employment. Through this training, the participants learned the
art of costume jewellery making a valuable skill that can be transformed into
a sustainable source of income. Vimukti believes that without access to
income-generating skills, financial stability remains out of reach for many
rural families. To ensure the long-term success of this initiative, Vimukti
continues to provide regular handholding support to these women as they begin
their own small businesses. This program not only aims to strengthen their
economic condition but also enhances their confidence and decision-making
abilities, thereby contributing to the overall development of their families and
communities.
Vimukti
organized computer classes aimed at empowering children with basic digital
literacy skills. The sessions were designed to introduce students to fundamental
computer operations, including typing, using Microsoft Office tools, internet
browsing, and basic coding concepts. The classes were interactive and hands-on,
allowing children to practice on individual computers. The initiative helped
increase children's confidence in using technology, preparing them for academic
and future professional needs. Feedback from participants was positive, with
many expressing enthusiasms for learning more. Overall, the program was a
successful step towards bridging the digital divide and promoting inclusive
education. Nearly 35 children benefited from this training.
Vimukti
Pothnal A 13-day skill development training program for women was inaugurated at
Vimukti Charitable Trust Pothnal in collaboration with SBI-RSETI Raichur. The
