How a woman had shown us the way to be self-independent.......

 Today is 15th August. Just close your eyes & go back in the year 1947. What did you feel? Having a feeling of independence.  Getting  freedom from foreign rulers,widen  a scope for us to grow as we wish.

Over the years India , no doubt had grown up to more developing phase & still growing up in terms of literacy, production & distribution & in many other aspects. We still remember sacrifice  of our leaders for their contribution for the well- being of the country.

Some people in our society continuously inspire us. During pandemic when economic impact is disruptive, when we are facing economic slow down everywhere with different extent, then I think story of an  Woman  Entrepreneur will definitely inspire us .

Why I have chosen her story? Oh! you might have forgotten the day----- It's 15th August. WE should feel independence at every way-- social & Economic---. & free of any polarisation factor like Gender bias.

To day, I am going to tell you the success story of a simple house wife who not only became self- reliant but also made others able to live a life .

Swapna Midhya, a woman of the resident of Diamond Harbour,west Bengal- is continuously growing up with her small sanitary & maternity pads from the last two years.  She started her organization "SHREE" almost from scratch.

Today, 8 nos of  women work at her organisation at production unit & more than 7 women are there for distributing  delivering pad to the target group.

70% of total earnings are being sent to non- profit organisations & she use to make a profit in rest of 30%.

Swapna demands the quality of her production is- as per with any branded company &  yet she provides at much more cheap rate. 

 Becoming an entrepreneur started when she was studying at college. She used to distribute pad to the  female of needy &  economically weaker section & aware them about its impact on health & hygiene with her pocket- money. But financial scarcity became a barrier in her social work. 

   She somehow took bank loan & bought semi automatic machine. Soon after getting  training,she at last started her journey towards-- a new world -- a world of entrepreneurship. Gradually she proceeded towards success route & today, her product  had spread over more than 6 districts.  Inspired by success, she bought automatic machine( of rs 70 lakh/ $7 million) for more production to meet the demand side.

    "Swapna" had not refrained herself from social work. Whenever there is any adverse situation due to calamity, she is there to extend her helping hands towards the beneficiaries.  She is not as business woman, but as a social entrepreneur & social worker, touched the heart of hundred & thousands of  people.

      Today also, she dreams of a society consisting of women who is self-independent irrespective of class/caste/religion & polarisation free society. This reflected through her providing training of maternity pad manufacturing. 

 Where during the recession period, many people are losing their jobs, many business man are in the dark about how to carry their business, many confident people like "Swapna" takes us to the world where one can have hope, can have a desire --not only to live a full of life  but also taking others in the way.  

  Because we are social animal. We love to live together,grow together & like to make a lovely "WE" society irrespective of class/caste/boundary. Perhaps this is called exactly "a global village". 

What do you think?  By the way---- WISH YOU A HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY...
