About
Shaheen Women’s Resource and Welfare Association (also known as Shaheen), established and registered in 2002, is a women-led, grassroot level organisation based in the heart of Old City, Hyderabad.
Marginalised women from the Muslim, Dalit and other backward communities, facing different forms of violence, walk into the organisation every day in the hope of support and intervention.
Our core interventions include:
- Elimination of domestic and social violence
- Working against trafficking and child marriages
- Gender sensitisation
- Promotion of education and health rights
- Skill development, livelihood generation and securing financial future
- Cultural advocacy
Our objective will not be fulfilled without the support of contributors who believe in our cause. If you would like to donate on individual capacity, request you to please visit our Contact Us page. If you are interested in an institutional partnership, kindly visit our Corporate & Institutional Partnership page. Even a small amount can create a big impact in the life of our survivors!
