Students of Mohini Read India Center in Rajasthan giving a hand on sewing machine. Mohini Read India Center is inaugurated in association with an American NGO, READ. READ expanded to India in 2007 to empower women and marginalized groups, and create educational and economic opportunities in rural areas. We work in the states of Delhi, Haryana, Maharastra, Manipur, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal. READ Centers are giving women the chance to learn to read, teaching people about their rights, and giving rural villagers skills to earn a living. Sustaining enterprises range from a gooseberry processing facility, to sewing and weaving businesses. READ India is home one of our all-women-operated centers, as well as several women's self-help groups. Source : http://www.readglo
