The Saheli Circle Initiative

The Saheli Circle Initiative (S.C.I) by the Mazi Saheli Charitable Trust (MSCT) is a holistic, community-driven approach to empower and uplift poor, needy, and destitute women from tribal and rural regions of Maharashtra. Recognizing the complex challenges these women face, S.C.I provides tailored support across various aspects of life, ensuring they have the tools and resources needed to break the cycle of poverty and achieve self-reliance.

Our Approach

We believe that empowerment is multifaceted. That’s why S.C.I works closely with women and their dependents, offering them a wide range of services, each designed to address their unique needs:

Counseling and Emotional Support: Many women in tribal and rural areas face emotional distress, social isolation, and trauma. S.C.I provides a safe space for these women to share their stories, receive mental health support, and rebuild their self-confidence.

Healthcare Access: Through partnerships with healthcare providers, we offer regular health check-ups, maternal care, and access to essential medical services. Our goal is to ensure that every woman, no matter how remote her location, receives the care she deserves.

Education and Skill Development: Education is the cornerstone of empowerment. S.C.I provides educational opportunities not only for women but also for their children. We focus on literacy, vocational training, and skills that are critical for both personal development and improved livelihood prospects.

Financial Literacy and Inclusion: Many women remain excluded from formal financial systems. S.C.I helps them navigate financial services, teaching them the basics of saving, investing, and accessing credit. This includes fostering entrepreneurship and sustainable income generation opportunities.

Digital Inclusion: In today’s digital age, being disconnected from technology further marginalizes rural women. S.C.I promotes digital literacy, ensuring that women have the skills to access digital tools, participate in e-governance, and explore online learning platforms.

Livelihood Opportunities: Our initiative connects women to sustainable livelihood programs that are aligned with their strengths and community needs. From farming cooperatives to craft-making and small-scale businesses, we help women achieve financial independence and create better futures for their families.

Impact

The Saheli Circle Initiative has already touched the lives of numerous women in rural and tribal Maharashtra, helping them rise above their circumstances and find new hope.
