Sewing School
Al-Iqbal Sewing School
We Aim To Support Sustainable, Inclusive And Equitable Economic Growth By Promoting Women's Economic Empowerment
Women’s empowerment includes the action of raising the status of women through education, raising awareness, literacy, and training. Women’s empowerment is all about equipping and allowing women to make life-determining decisions through the different problems in society.
Al-Iqbal Sewing School is yet another initiative from ABMDP.
- The programme is cost-free for the students. In other words; cost for cloth, machinery, teacher salary etc. is payed by ABMDP.
- The desire to enroll for this programme is so immense, that two 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 skills. Until now all students have passed with flying colours and achieved top marks – MashaAllah! Private donors have awarded each a sewing machine.
If you are planning for a year, sow rice;
If you are planning for a decade, plant trees;
If you are planning for a lifetime, educate people.
