The tailoring training center project works directly to reduce poverty of vulnerable groups especially women in Ruaraka.
The centre runs classes for 4 months for the target group to give them relevant tailoring skills to enable them seek employment from the Export Processing zones (EPZs industries) in Ruaraka. To date 43 women successfully completed their training and 10 of them are already employed by Rafiki Industries as machine operators
Other trained beneficiaries will be assessed and linked to secure loans from micro-finance institutions or given grant when available to purchase their own sewing machines for small businesses.
The project intends to benefit many women and one of the cornerstones of our success has been our ability to build partnerships and funding for our various causes/project.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
