necklaces for the shopHope Arts and other income-generating (IG) projects help widows learn how to create cards, necklaces and other gift items.

This training is done in a safe and clean on-site working environment.

Training is provided in the Asha Bhavan (House of Hope) Building where the elderly and needy widows have also found a school for their children.

The widows, who often come without much previous education, can also profit from the literacy training program. Widows meet for training in the Dutch Bakery.
