*Activity Note: Empowering Women of the Bhiwandi Redlight area - July 2026*

Today, the *Path of Bliss team also visited the Bhiwandi Redlight area* at *Kshamata* centre.

We spent time *speaking with the women* and *understanding their challenges* firsthand. It was inspiring to hear about their resilience and their commitment to rebuilding independent and dignified lives. Some of them who were also mothers were determined to educate their children and make them live a dignified life. One of the daughters is a proud nurse.

We also *saw their stitching centre in action*. The women are being trained in tailoring and livelihood skills as part of their economic empowerment. Their products are even *advertised and sold through the centre’s website*, giving them a platform to reach customers and earn with dignity.

As part of our support this month, *Path of Bliss donated*:
- *Basic essentials*: First aid kits and sanitary napkins
- *Educational materials*: Slates, chalks, white boards, and chart papers
- *Livelihood training materials*: Threads and scissors for tailoring
- *Infrastructure support*: A ceiling fan and a large floor mattress for the centre

It was deeply moving to witness the holistic care being provided — psychological, social, and economic — to help each woman heal, regain confidence, and reintegrate into society.

We remain committed to supporting this journey and will continue to stand with these brave women.

*Activity Note: Children’s Observation Home, Bhiwandi | June 2026*

Today, the Path of Bliss team visited the *Children’s Observation Home, Bhiwandi*, run by the District Probation and After Care Association.

This home is a secure shelter for orphans, abandoned children, and juvenile delinquents, with a capacity of 140 children. Earlier, we had supported them in revamping the common kitchen that serves both the boys’ and girls’ homes.

As part of our ongoing support, *Path of Bliss donated 2 new machines this month*:
1. *Steam Machine* – for making idli, dhokla, etc.
2. *Gravy-making Machine* – for preparing curry pastes and chutneys

We are happy to share that *we got to see both machines working today* and also had the opportunity to *taste the delicious idlis* made in the new steam machine.

It was heartwarming to see the kitchen functioning smoothly and the children benefitting from better meals prepared with improved facilities.
