Thank you for your support and for helping the poor marginalized girls of Distrcit Toba Tek SIngh.Through your support 109 girls are learning the stiching skill in 6 rural areas.

During the Pandemic lockdown, Society for Human Development did not close their sewing centers, because of the request of our community. We requested the teachers to follow the SOPs and to manage the classes in different shifts daily with each shift consisting of 10 girls. By observing the Government's SOPs all the beneficiaries, SHD staff and our remained safe from the virus. 

Society for Human Development has also started offering  a sewing class for the unskilled and vulnerable women in chak # 363 Toba Tek Singh. The training in these classes is enabling these 30 women to become self-sufficient and to support their families, by stitching clothes for neighbors and relatives. The trainee Women are so excited and thankful to Society for Human Development for giving them an opportunity to learn and play an important role among their families. Due to the pandemic the attendence is low but will improve in the coming days.
