USHA Silai School Spreads Its Wings With The Help Of Public And Private Partners
Eight years ago USHA Silai School set on a journey to make women from marginalised communities self-sufficient. Over the years, the program has received support in various forms from people across the country. With the increasing public and private partnership, USHA has only grown and reached to different parts of the country. The partnerships have taken USHA to villages of Uttar Pradesh and Assam.

As part of their CSR (Corporate social responsibility), Wildlife Institute of India (WII), Northern Coalfields Limited (NCL) and North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Limited (NEEPCO), recently partnered with USHA Silai School Program to provide livelihood opportunities to rural women in their respective areas. While USHA was given the job to train rural women, public and private partners took the responsibility of setting up a sewing centre with high tech sewing machines.

To promote livelihood in the state of Uttar Pradesh, WII reached out to USHA and requested them to train women residing in rural areas. The training has not only increased the family income of these women, but also opened various avenues, as it has done for 17-year-old Aarti.
