Shilu Kunvar, a resident of Kod village, joined the Ram Rahim Group. Before joining the Self Help Group, her family faced financial hardship and she was determined to change her situation. Inspired by the Self Help Group’s potential, Vishnu gathered local women and started a group. Over time, the Group helped Shilu and other women receive training in various crafts such as making designer plates, candles, incense sticks, and home decoration items.
Vishnu took out several loans to buy materials for these crafts, and with each new skill she learned, her business expanded. The women in her Group collaborated to produce these items and sold them at local markets and fairs. The Self Help Group also helped them participate in state-level exhibitions where they could showcase their products.
Her dedication and leadership abilities have made her an influential figure in her village. She now earns a steady income of Rs. 16,000 per month and has helped many other women become self-reliant.
