But grappling with the notion of burdening him with myself and my child was a constant struggle. I yearned for a means to contribute meaningfully to our family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So she volunteered for Calcutta Rescue\u2019s Restoration of Livelihoods program, a tailoring and embroidery course run by the handicrafts team.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Not only did she successfully complete the course, she demonstrated an outstanding talent for tailoring.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRehana stands as one of our program\u2019s brightest stars.

Calcutta Rescue has been my guiding light, turning my dreams of providing a better life for my son into reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rehana\u2019s journey, although fraught with challenges, is a testament to her resilience and the transformative power of employment training.
