In spite of their creative skill and technique and hard work, poverty still hangs like a dead weight over the heads of urban women. This project will empower and develop the skills of large numbers of poor women and adolescent girls in tailoring and embroidery.

The purpose of tailoring training is to open up work possibilities.  A training facility with 35 machines (25 small and 10 large), in order to make this ambition a reality.

  • To train them, we have recruited some trainers. In case there are any issues, a mechanic also engage to fix the equipment.
  • The training facility is well -furnished with water and other required sanitization tools.
  • The training will be used to create masks, sleepwear, designing, measuring, and cutting; stitching; embroidery, and frocks, with plans to transform this training into a job.

Moreover, Project Garima is a diversification strategy for the establishment of Women’s Entrepreneurial Startups.  This initiative helps underprivileged, illiterate women who have the capacity to be powerful but are at a disadvantage financially. Only a shortage of financial means prevents them from realising their dream.
