Impact Story

Here's a refined version of Sarita Devi's story, aligning with the tone and structure of Sujeet Bhaiya’s narrative: - At Mon Ami Foundation, we believe in the power of opportunity and the strength within every individual. Sarita Devi, originally from Sheikhpura Zila, Bihar, now resides in Noida Sector 120 with her husband and three children. Before joining Mon Ami Foundation, Sarita had limited experience in sewing and stitching. It was Asha Didi, a fellow artisan, who introduced her to the world of craftsmanship, setting her on a path of transformation. 

Eager to learn, Sarita undertook offline training provided by Mon Ami Foundation. Over a month, she mastered creating intricate coasters, crocheted spiders, turtles, and other handcrafted products. Her determination stemmed from a deep desire to support her family—her husband, a cab driver, and their three children, aged 14, 9, and 4.5 years. With her earnings, she now ensures all her children receive a proper education. 

Sarita’s journey has been one of resilience and empowerment. Initially hesitant about her working, her husband now wholeheartedly supports her endeavours. She primarily works from home but actively participates in product development, eagerly coming to the office whenever new designs need to be learned. Beyond securing financial independence, she has gained confidence, purpose, and a sense of belonging. Her impact extends beyond her own household—Sarita has introduced five more women to Mon Ami Foundation, guiding them toward self-reliance and financial stability.
