Al-Iqbal Sewing School is yet another initiative from Anjuman-e-Behbood-e-Marizah Denmark-Pakistan.
The programme is cost-free for the students. In other words; cost for cloth, machinery, teacher salary etc. is payed by Anjuman-e-Behbood-e-Marizah Denmark-Pakistan.
The desire to enroll for this programme is so immense, that 2 classes have been established - morning/afternoon.
The young girls learn the art of tailoring, knitting and needlework. Whatever they sew/knit is theirs to keep or is sold. The income is naturally given to the respective student.
Students participate in exams at Jhelum to obtain official recognition of their ability. Until now all students have passed with flying colours and achieved top marks - MaashAllah!. Private donors have awarded each a sewing machine.
