Empowering Girls with Sewing Machines

By Kajubi Jimmy | Project Leader

he girls in our sewing and tailoring program continue to participate actively in practical training. On the ground, they are spending time learning how to operate the sewing machines, practicing basic stitching, taking measurements, cutting materials, and putting together simple clothing items.

The training is helping the girls develop patience, creativity, confidence, and practical skills. They are becoming more comfortable with the machines and are encouraged to learn from one another as they practice.

The girls are particularly excited when they are able to complete a sewing task on their own. These practical sessions are gradually building their confidence and helping them see that sewing can become a useful skill for their future.

We continue to encourage the girls to remain committed to their training and to support one another throughout the learning process. Our hope is that, with continued training and access to sewing equipment, the girls will gain skills that can help them become more self-reliant and create opportunities for themselves in the future.

The work continues, and the girls remain determined to learn, practice, and grow.
