Sewing Project


Sister Alex in Galle has been supporting the ladies in the community by setting up a sewing project. Young Hope has been helping her buy sewing machines and materials. With a machine and the right skills the ladies can earn a living. thjis is especially helpful for ladies who have children to support and no husband due to the Tsunami.

Through Sister Alex, Young Hope has helped several families buy sewing machines. There is also now a tailoring calss where the ladies can improve their sewing skills. Here are some photos os the sewing machines we have been able to buy and the tailoring classes in action!

Sewing machines cost about £50 to set up. If you would like to get involved with this project please let us know.
