Even Cargo is a social enterprise that employs women from resource-poor communities and trains them for employment opportunities with major e-commerce companies. Their focus is to overcome the barriers of unemployment through skill development to increase the participation of women in the Indian labor market. Globally, 37% of the workforce is comprised of women, but in India, that number has shrunk to only 17%. By aiming to provide safe and financially secure jobs, Even Cargo aims to transform opportunities for women in India by shrinking the wage gap and increasing standards of living. By recruiting primarily from marginalized communities, Even Cargo has the ability to provide them with a chance of real economic independence working for companies such as Amazon, Flipkart, Zomato, and more.
