Introduction • Jyothi Social Welfare Centre [Society of Ursine Sisters of Somasca] is a non government organization [NGO] with the register no - 217 \ 80 -81 [ Karnataka registration act - 1960 ] has been functioning from the last 20 years in the rural areas of Mysore District Karnataka State. The Social Welfare Center of the congregation began its activities in the year 1986 with a small class for dropout and working children from the nearby villages. With the help of a team of sisters, social workers, teachers. The aim was to help rural population find ways and means to build up their community and thus contribute towards a better society. Based on the experiences gained in working with rural population in general and dropout and working children in particular and realizing the need to cater to under privileged children and women living in rural areas, the center expanded its activities to some of the adjoining villages from 1986.

In order to provide regular and alternate sustainable income to the women. So it is our desire to help the women through small income generation activities, through this income generation activities we can make our women self reliant and to promote socio- economic status like cattle rearing, milk business, petty shops, vegetable, fruit and flower vending, pappadam making, Green house cultivation etc. Through this they will be able to earn additional income for their livelihood.
