Covid-19 in Cambodia is under control, so we have reopened our school since November 2021.
14 women have successful completed from our sewing program. It is such a great outcome that all of them have improved their confidence and leadership and used their skills to make their lives better.
Among 12 of them, six have secured employment at an ethical factory and six set up their home businesses and two are public school teachers who will use their skills to teach students.
Through our survey:
Another great news - 21 of our graduated students gained employment at an ethical factory and shops in August during this pandemic. This is great because they can still earn income to support their families.
Currently, there are 32 women participating in our sewing program. Their learning are progressing well.
We would like to share a nice story of our sewing graduate:
Phanny is a single mom of 3-year-old daughter. She stays with her single mother since she got divorce with her husband. She used to work as a cleaner before she joins our program. She really needed a skill in order to get a better income for her family.
She studied sewing skill with us for almost one year. Her dream come true as she has skill and got a better job after graduating. She is now working at an ethical factory, and she is so happy with her new career.
“I am so proud of myself that I can do what I really wish. I am thrill that I have a skill and gain more knowledge through joining the program at Human and Hope Association. The most importantly, I could get a job during the Covid19 outbreak. Now I am able to earn a good income to support my family.”
