At Fahmida Foundation, we empower individuals through skill-based training that leads to sustainable income and self-reliance. Our Vocational and Technical Training programs are tailored to equip youth, women, and underserved communities with hands-on skills that match market needs.
From tailoring and beautician services to mobile repairing, computer literacy, and graphic design, our courses are led by experienced instructors and focus on practical, real-world application. We prioritize women’s participation to help them achieve financial independence and contribute confidently to their households and communities.
Training is delivered in a supportive environment, along with guidance on entrepreneurship, ethics, and basic financial literacy. We also assist graduates with micro-financing links and job placement support to help them launch their careers or small businesses.
Fahmida Foundation believes that skill development is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and building stronger, self-sufficient communities.
