What is the “POWER of SEWING” to a poverty-ridden woman?
It means that a woman in poverty can learn a life skill, earn a living wage, support her own needs, children’s education, her family income needs, and make a valuable contribution to her community, changing the lives of others living in the clutches of poverty.
A Sewing Machine will intervene as one of the means that empower a woman and help to achieve Sustainable Developmental Goals - SDG 1 (End poverty), SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), SDG 3 (Good Health & Well-being), SDG 4 (Skill Development), SDG 5 (Gender Equality), SDG 8 (Descent Work & Economic Growth) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities). The women can experience a massive transformation in hope, faith, lifestyle, and belief that they can impact their local community for the better.
By gifting a Sewing Machine, you will help a woman from a lower income, single mother, orphaned teen, or widow to make a decent living through sewing skills under our “The POWER of SEWING” project. Women from rural areas are provided with free sewing training under the project, thereby creating livelihood opportunities for the sustainability of their families.
The “POWER of SEWING”, an initiative of PARD INDIA, helps women to be empowered.
PARD INDIA, a women's empowerment NGO, empowers women at the grassroots through our “POWER of SEWING” program to ensure every woman becomes independent, self-reliant, and economically well.
Sewing is a skill that enables women to learn how to sew and make it a source of income. It is a powerful tool that significantly impacts their lives and communities.
Impact of Sewing Machines on women's empowerment
Here are the reasons why sewing machines can help women in their empowerment journey:
- Economic Independence: Sewing can help women start their businesses and make custom-made clothing, home goods, and other things. This skill enables women to earn a stable income while reducing dependency on family and friends.
- Skills Development: Sewing is a life skill that makes women observant while improving their analytical thinking. These skills contribute to their self-esteem.
- Leadership: An empowered woman works and leads other women and ultimately a community. She becomes a mentor while sharing her skills and experience with others. It brings positive change.
- Self-Esteem: Sewing builds self-esteem, pride, and satisfaction in women. These help women enlighten themselves and believe they can create a better world.
