New Sewing Machines - Income Generation Opportunity


It has been a good end to last year and start to this one. The fruits of early efforts are coming off. We received and new Singer sewing machine and an overlook machine for the tailoring and dressmaking dept. We previously had 14 “butterfly sewing machines which are very old fashioned and do not generate the quality needed to do income generating activities. The samples we took to schools were rejected.


Now with the new machines we already have orders from two schools for around 400 uniforms already. We will now need to get more of the better quality machines (£300 each) to meet the demand and hopefully grow the income generating side this in turn will help us get more equipment – a very positive cycle towards self-sufficiency.  If anyone feels they can support with getting more machines please contact me via the contact link on this blog.
