Financial Literacy Awareness Camp – Cachar, Assam

We organized a Financial Literacy Awareness Camp at Cachar, Assam in collaboration with CLF, Bank Sakhi, Jeevika Sakhi, and CSP representatives.
The objective of the camp was to promote financial awareness among rural communities and empower them with knowledge about:
• Importance of savings and financial planning
• Government welfare schemes and banking services
• Digital transactions and safe banking practices
• Insurance and social security benefits
The interactive session encouraged participants to actively engage, ask questions, and understand how to make informed financial decisions for a secure future.
We sincerely appreciate the valuable support and cooperation of CLF members, Bank Sakhi, Jeevika Sakhi, CSP partners, and all participants who made this program successful.
Together, we move towards building a financially aware and empowered community. 💼📊

Yesterday, we organized an enrollment camp at Sahapur Tea Estate, Cachar, Assam — a very remote area where access to services is limited. Our dedicated team reached out to the tea garden workers and their families, ensuring that they could enroll for essential government schemes and welfare benefits.

We are proud to share that 129 beneficiaries successfully received services during the camp. This small but meaningful step will help connect the community to their rightful entitlements and improve their quality of life.

Karam Puja, a significant festival of the tea tribe communities, is observed to pay homage to and appease Mother Earth, marking the commencement of the harvest season. Warm felicitations to all, particularly the tea tribe communities, on this auspicious occasion. May this festival usher in good health, peace, and prosperity for everyone.

Today, an impactful awareness session was conducted at Binnakandi Pt I with the active participation of local women tea garden workers. The session focused on key issues such as health and hygiene, nutrition, sanitation, financial literacy, and various government welfare schemes.

Facilitators, along with our dedicated volunteer, led engaging discussions to equip rural women with essential knowledge and resources. The session encouraged open dialogue, where participants shared personal experiences, cleared doubts, and actively took part in meaningful conversations.
