Supporting Livelihoods
At Jeevan Care Foundation, we understand that sustainable livelihoods are crucial for breaking the cycle of poverty and fostering economic independence. Our livelihood programs are designed to equip individuals with the skills, resources, and opportunities they need to generate income and improve their standard of living. Here are the key areas of our livelihood support initiatives:
-
Skill Development and Vocational Training:
- We offer a variety of vocational training programs tailored to the needs of the local economy. These programs include training in trades such as tailoring, carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, computer literacy, and more.
- By partnering with industry experts and local businesses, we ensure that our training programs are relevant and aligned with current market demands, thereby increasing the employability of our beneficiaries.
-
Entrepreneurship Development:

- We also provide seed funding, mentorship, and networking opportunities to help new businesses get off the ground and thrive.
-
Microfinance and Self-Help Groups (SHGs):
- Access to financial services is a significant barrier for many in underserved communities. We facilitate microfinance programs that provide small loans to individuals and self-help groups to start or expand their businesses.
- Our SHGs empower members, particularly women, by promoting savings habits, providing access to credit, and fostering mutual support and cooperation.
-
Agriculture and Sustainable Farming:
- Agriculture is a primary livelihood for many rural communities. We support farmers by providing training in modern and sustainable farming techniques, access to quality seeds and tools, and assistance with market linkages.

-
Handicrafts and Artisan Support:
- We recognize the rich cultural heritage and skills of local artisans and craftsmen. Our programs support these artisans by providing training in design innovation, quality improvement, and market access.
- We also facilitate participation in fairs, exhibitions, and online marketplaces to help artisans reach a broader audience and increase their income.
-
Employment Facilitation and Job Placement:
- We assist job seekers in finding suitable employment opportunities by offering career counseling, resume building, interview preparation, and job placement services.
- Our partnerships with local businesses and industries enable us to match skilled individuals with job openings, facilitating a smoother transition into the workforce.
-
Women’s Economic Empowerment:
- Empowering women economically is central to our livelihood initiatives. We provide targeted support to women through skills training, financial literacy programs, and access to microcredit.
- Our women’s empowerment programs aim to enhance women’s income-generating capabilities and promote gender equality in economic participation.
-
Market Linkages and Value Chain Development:
- We help small producers and entrepreneurs integrate into larger value chains by providing market linkages, improving product quality, and facilitating access to broader markets.
- Our efforts include organizing buyer-seller meets, creating branding and packaging solutions, and leveraging digital platforms for marketing and sales.
-
Resilience Building and Disaster Risk Reduction:
