Namaste Friends!

It is with great pleasure that we present you our new project progress report.

Journey Home Foundation (JHF) under the initiative of promoting women empowerment has been providing various kinds of training opportunities as requested by the girls. JHF from the early stage of initiation has been giving out tailoring and sewing training opportunities to women and girls from rural areas. This report here is from few of our alumni.

They had received sewing & tailoring from JHF. They had full support from JHF to develop their skills regarding sewing and tailoring. They learned with full dedication and excelled in their work. Currently, they have travelled back to their villages and opened a small shop of their own. 

A small business of their own has helped them become independent and support the family on their own. With the start of a boarding school in the village, there has been a huge demand for school dresses to be made, which have turned out to be a lucrative deal for them as there are only a handful of skilled tailor there. Before, tailors from far off neighboring villages came to the village and provided with sewing and tailoring services but with the fresh skilled learned and sewing machine provided by JHF, there has been no need of a distant tailor to come in the village.

These girls, who have learned from JHF, have also started teaching other girls who are interested in sewing in the village locally. They support these girls and we also support them as much as possible. And with that, with the change in time, we are expanding the scope of training for women empowerment, from sewing training  to technical education.

We thank our supporters for motivating us to keep up with our good work. We hope to forever be blessed with your everlasting support

We heartily welcome your views, comments and queries regarding the work of JHF.

Cheers!
