- "When our women came to us for economic empowerment, they were very clear that they did not want to get into the available work streams of construction labourers or stone breakers. So we decided that the Mann Deshi Foundation should focus on areas that our women want to address and empower themselves economically, and generate additional income." - Chetna Gala Sinha, Founder, Mann Deshi Foundation
Through its collaboration with Samhita-CGF, Mann Deshi Foundation empowered countless women in rural areas, providing them with access to credit, financial inclusion, entrepreneurial skills, and essential tools for self-reliance. Their innovative approach, including the introduction of digital, financial and entrepreneurship education, has not only bridged the gender gap in entrepreneurship but also ignited economic revolutions in traditionally underserved communities.

Here's Saima Bano, a general store owner and an ambitious entrepreneur who always wanted to expand her customer base outside of her village. She comes from Durjanpurpatti, a small village in Uttar Pradesh, where most of the population belongs to minority communities and is economically backward. A woman of dreams, Saima, runs a general store and is dependent on nearby villages from where she receives most of her customers. While for a long period, she was struggling in mobilizing customers, she began connecting with people from other villages over smartphones using WhatsApp, Telegram, and other social media platforms after her digital literacy training.
