Mini Jose is a member of ESSS SHG for the last 20 years. She was very reserved and introvert initially. But the motivation and training conducted by ESSS helped her develop her capacities and become more active. The self-employment training conducted by ESSS instilled courage to start a beauty clinic on her own. Her savings and business loan from SHG helped her to find the working capital for the same. Now she has respectable earning and profit from the business, and it helped her to become self-dependent.
Her achievements not ended there. By spotting her leadership qualities, ESSS appointed her as an animator in that area. It further gave her more development opportunities. By seeing her commitment and social involvement, she was selected as a candidate in the last panchayat election and subsequently elected as a Panchayat Member. Still, she is holding the responsibility of ESSS animator and is excellent in multi-tasking.
