Sewing Machine Project In Bangladesh
What would a poor woman in rural Bangladesh need to do to use her business acumen if she is living in a society which deprived her or was unable to educate herself, or that the opportunities were non-existent to acquire new skills, or that her husband only earns a meagre amount to support his family to survive on a day-to-day basis, children to support and a culture which traditionally discourages women from working outside her household?
At G&Y we have put in place a means of earning whilst doing all the mentioned without compromising the societal structures in place, and that is providing a sewing machine to help the women in rural Bangladesh who can earn a living for themselves and also to support the family. The sewing machine allows them to flourish in business and also maintain the cultural norms. In order to support poor families to have a steady income we have distributed over 1074 sewing machines since 2010. Our aims and objectives are to raise more funds so that we can support more families in rural Bangladesh who are in desperate needs and are able to use a sewing machine and will support them for years to come. We have also established a training centre for women to attend and acquire sewing skills and experience. We ensure that the women who attend the training complete it in full and become independent and thus pass their skills on to others. We encourage these trained women to help others to also become skilled in sewing and in this way it becomes is continuous charity.

My kids and I were struggling to make ends meet because of Covid-19. I was working in people’s houses to make a living. During the lockdown we couldn’t work and so I had the chance to learn about tailoring.

After receiving the training, the certificate, and a sewing machine from G&Y I am able to work independently and earn a steady income.
