Geeta Malhotra, Country Director of READ speaking at the inauguration program of Mohini Grameen Vikas Kendra in Rajasthan.

READ expanded to India in 2007 to empower women and marginalized groups, and create educational and economic opportunities in rural areas. They work in the states of Delhi, Haryana, Maharashtra, Manipur, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal. READ Centers are giving women the chance to learn to read, teaching people about their rights, and giving rural villagers skills to earn a living. Sustaining enterprises range from a gooseberry processing facility, to sewing and weaving businesses. READ India is home one of our all-women-operated centers, as well as several women's self-help groups.
