She takes on many roles....

Meet Samira Maldar, a beneficiary of our Focused Rural Development Project. She shares what it truly means to balance the roles of a mother and a working woman.

As a Community Resource Person (CRP) for her Self-Help Group, Samira is more than a changemaker in her community; she is a mother building a stronger future for her children.

Every day, she supports her community while nurturing her family with the same care, confidence, and resilience that define her journey. Her deepest hope is that her children will grow up with greater opportunities, choices, and a life filled with possibilities she once could only dream of.

Through PRIDE Indiaโ€™s projects, women like Samira are empowered with the skills, opportunities, and support systems needed to lead with confidence at home and in their communities, not only empowering themselves but also future generations.

In the tribal hamlet of Wagheri, fishing is more than an occupation; it is a tradition passed down through generations. For many years, families faced economic insecurity despite having abundant fish; they were limited to using old sarees as improvised nets.

Today, due to our livelihood initiative from Ideal Village Project, the distribution of specialised fishing nets to ๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿฌ ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜€ has resulted in:

Daily Yield: 4โ€“5 kg of fish per fisherman
Market Value: Sold at โ‚น200/kg
Monthly Income: ~โ‚น12,000 in additional household revenue.
Reach: 60 families now have enhanced food and financial security

This initiative isnโ€™t just about the numbers, but about efficiency, access to resources and knowledge, and fostering sustainable livelihoods. It not only enhanced food and financial security but also a sense of pride and self-reliance among the tribal community.

We have reached over 3k beneficiaries since last year through our Ideal Village Project, and we continue to help the community manage their time and resources effectively. Thereby making villages resilient like Wagheri.
