Collaboration: So we got the idea of playing our part in filling this hunger gap in Pakistan. So we did the collaboration with the Robin Hood Pakistan for this purpose as they already been into this for more than 5+ years. Who are Robin Hood Army: The Robin Hood Army is a volunteer based, zero-funds organization that works to get surplus food from restaurants and the community to serve less fortunate people. Their Journey: Food Drive: So as we did a collaboration with The Robin Hood Pakistan Army and had a wonderful experience, we went to the Mauripur which is really a backward area near hawksbey. And there we distributed the food to almost every house and some juices and biscuits to the children there. Women Empowerment Project: In our project of Social Advocacy we had to do some social entrepreneurship, and had to make some people financially stable. So for that we know that in our society, there are many problems or issues and from that one of them is the lack of female labor force or their participation in the economy of our country. In Pakistan the women’s literacy rate is 47%, while the only 25% of women’s of women earn but this 25% also includes the women’s who belong to that 53% illiterate women’s and work in some factory as a maid or clerk. We have decide to play our part to overcome this gap, so we will be arranging a zoom session for females who cannot work in offices, organizations etc. or can’t leave their house for any reason. So that they can earn from their home so we are going to do this as our social advocacy project. So by doing this training session we will train those in a way that how they can earn from their homes by doing small works which can be done with zero investment and the only thing one will have to invest will be the time investment. Our group members will try to teach every one of them to be independent and capable of earning without even leaving there house. The Problem: The literacy rate of women in Pakistan are only 47%. From which only 25% of Women are playing their part in the economic activity of a country. From which mostly are the maids or work in a company in the lowest level and are illiterate. Pakistan has one of the lowest female labor force participation rates in South Asia. The emerging reasons behind this low rate are a lack of access to safe transport, social norms, and household responsibilities. Collaboration: So to tackle this gap from our society, we have coordinated with the Lemmen’s home which is situated in Dar ul Sakun, where mostly the socially displaced women’s live. Purpose: Our purpose to have the collaboration with them, is to make those women financially stable by teaching them that how they can earn from home and how they can become financially stable. And to find the needy individual women’s was so hard in compare to collaborating with the hostel. How we made them Financially Stable? We have given them a platform from where they don’t have to leave there home, or place and to travel somewhere but can work from home. They can earn just by publishing there content which can be anything like food recipe, your daily life, or taking part in any contest related to writing or photography. And can earn in Cryptocurrencies. What is Steemit? STEEMIT is a Decentralized Social media where there is no authority, and is working on the blockchain-based blogging and social media website. Users can gain a cryptocurrency, STEEM, for publishing content. Steps: So firstly we told them about the referrals as many people think we will earn something if we will tell them to start on this platfrom. But we don’t earn penny, the only thing we earn is some good deeds. And then what is Steemit. How they can sign up in that platform and how to save their password as the password of this is different from any normal password. Then I told them how they can earn from and show them the starting steps. Then for some motivation we showed them my profile and my wallet. As the question which arises after telling someone about these kind of platforms is “how much have you earned from that” so my wallet answered that question
