Vocational Training

A sewing machine changed everything

Widowed at 29 with three children, Nasreen had no income. One machine and eight weeks of training later, she runs a small tailoring business from home.

When Nasreen lost her husband, she also lost the only income her family had. Her three children were still in school, and within two months she was considering pulling them out.

Eight weeks of training

She enrolled in our cutting and sewing course at the Model Town centre. The course is free, and graduates leave with a machine of their own.

  • Free eight-week course
  • A sewing machine on graduation
  • Introductions to local buyers

Today Nasreen takes in stitching work from her neighbourhood and her children are still in school. Support this programme.
