In 2022, CSR initiatives by Evonith Steel were introduced in the village. At the same time, Evonith Steel continued its annual tradition of organizing events to mark the end of the year and welcome the new one.
With the expectation of doing something new in the village through CSR, a group of women decided to participate in this annual event for the first time. They took the initiative to set up a food stall, offering puran poli, appe, along with other items, putting in dedicated effort to manage preparation, setup, and service. The stall attracted good participation and received a positive response from attendees. This experience not only encouraged the women but also helped build their confidence and motivated them to explore it further as a potential livelihood opportunity.
Following this, the women decided to continue the activity as a regular business. With support from Evonith Steel’s CSR team, they planned the next steps, identified a suitable location, and received the required guidance.
Today, Suruchi Mahila Enterprises operates successfully opposite DMart in Inzapur, providing the women with a steady source of income and greater financial independence.
