Meet Shikha Jain. Trained as an engineer, she never planned to start a business. What began as a small soap-making initiative with women in a village gradually evolved into something much larger.

Over time, the women involved became more than product makers. They took on new responsibilities, learned new skills, managed operations, and played an active role in shaping the growth of the enterprise.

Her story is one of collaboration, entrepreneurship, and the power of creating opportunities through trust and shared learning. Today, NEEV stands as an example of how small beginnings can grow into meaningful change for entire communities.
