Beneficiary Name– Sangeeta Anil Mohite Village Name : Ghatnandre Activity Description: Livelihood Support for Women – Goat Farming Assistance
Sangeeta Anil Mohite, a determined woman from a financially struggling family, found new hope when she received a goat through the Suzlon and Prerana Foundation’s Livelihood Support for Women program. She does not have her own farm, but her hard work and determination became her biggest strength. While her husband manages household expenses through farming jobs, Sangeeta cares for her elderly mother. Their daughter, a bright and intelligent student, continues her education with big dreams for the future.
With love and care, Sangeeta nurtured the goat, and soon it gave birth to two healthy kids. This moment was not just the birth of goat kids—it was the birth of a new beginning for her family. The joy of seeing her small goat farming business grow brought confidence, pride, and a sense of security.
The woman benefited from the goat giving birth to kids, earning at least ₹10,000. Her business will now continue. Due to this, her family has achieved financial stability. Goat milk has also become available at their home, and she will also earn income from it. Goat farming is a sustainable business—it is a business that never stops.
From selling goats and using goat milk, Sangeeta gained not just income but also dignity and strength. Today, she is not only a proud goat farmer but also a shining example of how women’s determination, when supported at the right time, can transform entire families.
✨ “A single goat gifted her not just income—but hope, happiness, and the strength to dream again.”
🐐 “One goat, a family’s hope, and a future that never stops.”

Beneficiary Name– Sarikha Falkhe Village Name : Dhondewad Activity Description:In the quiet village of Dhondewad in Tasgaon taluka lived Sarika Falkhe , a woman whose life had been shaped by hardship. Her home had no steady income, no security, and no helping hand. Every day began with uncertainty—How will we manage today? What will we eat? How will the children study? Yet, Sarika carried all her struggles with silent strength.
When Suzlon Foundation and Prerana Foundation reached her through their Women Empowerment Programme, Sarika received something very small in the eyes of the world—a single goat. But for Sarika, it was not just an animal… It was her first ray of hope. Months passed, and one morning, that goat gave birth to three beautiful kids. For the first time in many years, tears rolled down Sarika’s eyes—not from pain, but from relief and joy. She knew that these three little lives had the power to change her own. The goat and its kids brought her an income of nearly ₹15,000 to ₹20,000—a huge amount for a family that struggled for every rupee. With this money:
She managed household needs that were long pending
She could buy essentials for her children
She felt a sense of pride and independence she had never felt before
Sarika says with a trembling voice: “When I had nothing, someone believed in me. This small goat became the reason my family smiled again.”
A life once overshadowed by poverty began to shine with dignity and hope. A small act of support lit up an entire family’s future.
