Respected Madam/Sir,
SUSTAINABLE HEALTH AND MANPOWER DEVELOPMENT is a grass-root level voluntary organisation engaging in rural development activities. Especially, we concentrate on women self groups and organised more than 200 SHGs in Kilpennathur Block,Tiruvannamalai District. Although there are various types of micro-entrepreneurship trainings have been provided to these SHGs, the women doesn’t acquire leadership and literacy in legal issues and support for these women. Hence it is absolute necessacity to provide them legal education and women rights and privileges. Now we proposed to start legal education classes for rural women in this region.But as a grass-root level organisation ,we need financial assistance and support of experts like lawyers and magistrates to conduct these legal education classes.
Hence we hereby request your goodself to send us any application or guidelines to submit a proposal to your esteemed organisation seeking grant-in-aid.
Solicit your esteemed co-operation and support,
