Together we can change futures

By Julia Matthew | Managing Director

Dear Donor,

Greetings from El Shaddai Charitable Trust. We are extremely grateful and thankful for your donations in helping empower girls and women. Your support is not just an act of kindness, it's a beacon of hope for many.

Underprivileged girls and women face significant challenges, including a lack of access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, often intensified by gender-based discrimination, poverty, and social norms like early marriage and dowry demands. Many are denied basic education, which traps them in a cycle of poverty and dependence.  

With your help and support, El Shaddai has been able to help underprivileged girls and women by empowering and providing privileges to the less fortunate women living in backward regions and rural areas of Goa. El Shaddai helps these women with all the essential means and developmental skills in order to help them climb the ladder of self-reliance. These life skills include courses like sewing, tailoring, crochet, adult literacy, mehendi, beautician, and computers.

We have a beautiful story of a girl named Swati (name changed). She lived with her parents and every day the family’s struggles were pressed on her shoulders. She wanted to break free from this struggle and become independent. One day she came across our center’s vocational tailoring class. She decided to enroll for the same. A small step became a journey of transformation.

Today she is a skilled and confident tailor and her earnings bring relief at home. This transformation story shows us that with love and support we can make the dreams of these underprivileged girls and women come true.

This is possible only with the generous support of kind hearted people like you and for this we will always be grateful.

 With Gratitude,

 Sincerely

 El Shaddai family
