Home of Hope partnered with MWS in 2005, marking its first major rural initiative. HOH joined hands with MWS to help transform Mijwan into a model village—strengthening programs for girls, expanding skills training, promoting sports and arts, and supporting long-term educational opportunities. This partnership was rooted in a shared commitment to equity, empowerment, and sustainable community development.
Chikankari Embroidery Program (2005–2010)
HOH created and funded the Chikankari training program, enabling rural women to earn independently. The craft later gained global visibility, becoming a symbol of financial empowerment and gender equality in Mijwan.
Sports Program (2013–Present)
Initiated by Gurbaz Singh, then HOH Youth Chapter President, the program encouraged girls to enter sports for the first time.
Key outcomes include:
Cultural Drama & Theatre Program (2017–Present)
With support from actress Ashvini Bhave, the initiative builds confidence, public speaking, and creative expression. In 2025, a young Mijwan actress performed at an international film festival in Chicago—a milestone for rural arts.
Performing Arts Program (2024–Present)
Funded by Vineeta Bhandari, this program nurtures talent in music, dance, and visual arts. Her long-term vision includes creating a Performing Arts Academy for rural youth.
Education & Future School Initiative
Education remains central to Mijwan’s growth. HOH aims to build a world-class English-medium school, powered by the first foundational contribution from Dr. Veena Puri. This school will offer high-quality education from kindergarten upwards—right within the village.
COVID-19 Relief (2020)
HOH supported continued learning, essential supplies, and family support during the pandemic, safeguarding vulnerable households.
