MIRPURKHAS: Khushhali Microfinance Bank partnered with the Sindh Graduates Association (SGA) has launched a skills-development program for women in Mirpurkhas.
According to the bank’s information on Monday, the training program includes a complete tailoring-course for women as well as informative sessions on financial literacy to impart knowledge and understanding of financial concepts along with banking products and services.
The program aims to empower the women and enable them to earn sustainable livelihoods, raise their standards of living, and understand the value of saving money and investing in their family’s future.
The participating women will be taught to realize their irrefutable role in the well-being of their household, in case their families are faced with poverty. If women are empowered, they can achieve a greater degree of self-reliance and economic prosperity within their families, while raising their children with a better quality of life.
