TWENTY NEW COMPUTERS TO HELP JOB SEEKERS

The Maneckji and Shirinbai Neterwala Foundation generously donated 20 new computers to RCB’S Vocational Training Centre at YMCA, Mumbai Central. The inauguration took place on May 21st at 5.30 pm.

The Vocational Training Centre has touched the lives of close to 50,000 people since its establishment in 1993 at Agripada Municipal School. Last year, approximately 2000 students enrolled for various courses at VTC at Agripada.

The project is expected to benefit females in the age group of 15-40 years, most of whom not literate enough to earn for themselves and their families. They live below the poverty line.

The project provides a platform to girls and women who risk being exploited due to their low economic status. The centre is located in an area that is approachable and accessible. Services provided under this project are planned so as to be affordable to the community.

This project helps the beneficiaries to be economically and socially strong and also enhances their self-esteem and selfconfidence.
