Excited about a new initiative

By Nepal team | Project Team

We thank you for your ongoing support for the Women's Empowerment project. Your support means increased resources for programs that educate, develop skills and build positive networks among women in the region. 

We have a strong focus on supporting women to develop confidence in speaking English.  In the past three months we have run over 70 workshop sessions for women.  These workshops not only offer a supportive opportuity to develop skills, they are also a have a key outcome of being a social outlet for women in the community.  We've also supported with workshops on a range of issues including health topics.

We are excited to report that we have been working with the community to develop a new sustainable initiative based on developing sewing skills.  We aim to raise enough funds to purchase five sewing machines. We can also fund  an experienced trainer who can deliver sessions to develop skills around sewing. The skills will include; how to tailor clothes more effectively, manage sewing machine issues and to work safely with a sewing machine.

To foster the long Nepali traditions of the artisanal tailoring industry, we will ensure the trainer applies  local practices for sewing so the women can develop skill sets that are unique to Pokhara, and so they are more likely to be successful in a larger market. The sewing will give women a chance to develop their skills and apply these to money earning initiatives.

We appreciate you support in keeping our long term projects running.  It is wonderful to see the development of English skills among the women and exciting that we can expand to new initiatives to support the needs in the community.

Every donation is sincerely appreciated.  We thank you for your support in helping us achieve our goal!
