Impact Story
When the pandemic disrupted lives, 38‑year‑old Pramila Didi from Madhubani found a way forward through Mon Ami Foundation. She joined during the lockdown, determined to keep her craft alive and create a secure future for her family. With guidance and training, she not only mastered her artistry but also learned how to manage exhibitions, connect with buyers, and handle the business side of her work. Today, she runs her own stalls, earns enough to educate her children, and proudly supports her household. But her journey goes beyond personal success. Pramila has become a mentor, leading a self‑help group that encourages other women artisans to embrace sustainable practices and financial independence. By sharing her experience, she helps preserve traditional crafts while showing that handmade work can be both a livelihood and a legacy. Her story is about more than survival; it is about community, empowerment, and the belief that when one artisan rises, she can lift many others with her.
Impact Story
Bebi Didi’s journey shows how small opportunities can bring big changes. She grew up in Bihar and moved to Delhi NCR thirteen years ago. For many years, she was a homemaker, busy with household work and caring for her family. She had no experience in crafting and never imagined herself making handmade products.
Impact Story
Meenu, a 40‑year‑old artisan from Darbhanga, Bihar, has lived in Noida for two decades. Four years ago, she joined
Mon Ami Foundation, stepping into the world of handmade crafts for the first time. With only an 8th‑grade education and no prior work experience, she discovered a new sense of purpose through crochet. Training with master craftsmen helped her refine her skills, building confidence and precision in her work. Beyond financial support for her children’s education and household expenses, Meenu found joy in creating, independence in earning, and community in connecting with fellow artisans. Today, she embraces her craft not just as a livelihood but as a source of pride. Meenu believes effort should be rewarded with opportunity, and she dreams of producing more crochet pieces to support her family while carrying forward the heritage of handmade artistry.
Impact Story
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.
