Dear friends this post is about our artisans and about us . Here is a brief .

Aham Bhumika is an NGO based in Bhopal registered under Societies Act as well as under Section 80 (G) of Income Tax Act. The NGO comprises of few likeminded people who are engaged in social welfare activities through Aham Bhumika and otherwise work separately to support their own families.

The NGO works in two villages namely Borda and Mahabadia adjacent to each other located at outskirts of Bhopal. Besides basic art and craft education of rural children the NGO has a livelihood initiative wherein it has trained more than 40 rural women and girls in hand embroidery work in past three years. The core aim of this initiative is to enable rural women to earn a livelihood. The embroidered panels are made into cushion covers, tote bags and zipper pouches in the stitching unit comprising of another small group of rural women. Currently these products are sold mainly through Facebook, Twitter and word of mouth marketing.
