GramArth is a comprehensive program aimed at
enhancing financial inclusion and education in communities.
The program recognizes the significant gap in financial
knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours, particularly
in economically vulnerable areas. Through a multi-faceted
approach, GramArth seeks to empower children, youth,
women and significant others from communities by
enhancing financial knowledge and skills that will
empower them in making informed decisions about
money matters and financial products, ultimately
improving their financial well-being.

Financial Inclusion of Seasonal Migrant Workers
There are millions of seasonal migrant workers in
India who are mostly engaged in unskilled work in
industries such as construction, mining, manufacturing,
hospitality, domestic work and head loading. They
remain excluded from formal financial services due
to low incomes, risky jobs and their constant movement
between source (villages) and destination (cities).
Migrant workers enter labour markets at an early
age of 13-14 years.. As a result of poor access
to formal financial services, migration for this
group of workers becomes a poor economic opportunity.
Therefore
Shram Sarathi was established to address the financial
needs of this group of workers and to create greater
visibility about their challenges in the financial
sector.

The Importance of Financial Literacy for Women
Financial literacy is about independence, confidence
and security. But, most women in India remain excluded
from this knowledge. From managing daily expenses
to preparing for emergencies, financial skills empower
women to take charge. Smile Foundation’s initiatives
show why this journey matters now more than ever
