Vote for Asha – Vote for Bihar : ASHA – The Livelihood Programme for millions
This project is an initiative of Bihar Development trust.
Bihar Development Trust has partnered with MAKETICK Foundation, California, USA to fight for 2.5 million dollar sponsered by American Express. This amount will be given to most deserving ideas that makes a positive impact in the world. Our project name is ASHA – The Livelihood Programme for millions
The project has been categorised under economic development & microfinance subcategory within community development category.
According to Dr. Ravi who belongs to the “Bihar Development Trust”
“We believe that our goal to establish a platform that will facilitate to create sustainable livelihoods for these underprivileged artisans, particularly rural and women artisans and thereby, improve their economic and living conditions is the most deserving one. The artisans are organized as self help groups; provided with orders and designs to fulfill the order and given credit to purchase raw materials. The production goes through a QA cycle. The artisans will be federated at the district level and organized as Producer Company.”
The project is already working with the weavers of Bhagalpur, Bihar.
