Skill Centre Training:

No one decides to raise children in a slum, but life can be cruel to those who come to cities to find work.  Having no resources in their country side villages, they come for the better life in the city only to become stuck in a slum. We are sitting close to the Instructor's desk.

 Ambassadors of Hope International feels that it is their purpose to make a difference in the lives of young people, one child at a time. By empowering them through education , job-training and life skill empowerment, with the goal that they might leave behind the slums of India and live a productive and purposeful life.  This is accomplished at this time through various projects that train young people with skills that they will be able to use throughout their life.

We read about India becoming an economic powerhouse in the world and that is so true.  one However one can lose sight of the fact that most Indians struggle with their basic needs such as food, shelter, clothing and clean water.  They are  not working in the computer software companies of Bangalore, but struggle in a slum in New Delhi where this is not much work.

Working together in harmonyAmbassadors of Hope International is presently making a difference by taking a group of young people from all backgrounds and teaching them skills ranging from tailoring to selling wares, from beauticians and barbers to basic computer skills, all with the intent of improving their quality of life both now and in the future.  We also have a group of women who are trained in the art of jewelry making such as bangles.  They are sold both in Delhi and across the world. (If you are interested in purchasing them please contact us.)

Your financial contribution can change the life of a young person, remove the tears of the present circumstances and give them a future filled with hope.  Your gifts  will buy material for sewing machines to computers that will train the young people presently but also allow them to take the equipment as an investment in their lives as they venture into the job market.

Ambassadors of Hope International will aid the young people in their job search by going to various employers and making them aware of the availability of quality trained potential employees.

We also have self-help micro-finance groups for women.  There are currently 35 of these groups, in each there are 15 to 20 Self-Help Group in a planning sessionwomen.  Each woman will contribute at least one dollar into a fund.  The money accumulates for six months.  During this time they cannot take out loans.  After this period, the money is collected and counted.  We contribute the equivalent sum or more into the fund. This then goes to a person chosen by the group.  The person chosen then lays out the business plan for either a grocery shop, or tailoring business, beauty salon, or jewelry shop.  The key is "empowerment and self-reliance," giving dignity to young women to make a difference in their lives and the lives of their children.
