Our Journey
Our vision is to sew and grow the seeds of equitable employment for women, to break the poverty cycle and leave no human behind. Below is the journey we have been on to help us get there.
2013
Working with Narikuravar Nomadic Communities
Through our newly formed partnership with Samugam (a local NGO), we began providing training to women from nomadic communities in Pondicherry.
2015
Our very first training centre
We created a safe working environment for our team in a small shed, and opened up our training program to women from communities exposed to sex work and those with disabilities.
2016
A huge milestone
Our tailoring operations expanded into a brand new, purpose-built women's community centre. In creating a safe space of work, it also became a haven for women experiencing domestic violence.
2020
Finding resilience in tough times
During the pandemic, we continued to pay our women and gave access to additional medical and health resources. Our women extended support to their communities by creating an initiative to make masks for local government hospitals.
