Shoshana sewing centre, Venkatappaiah colony, Guntur.

New batch of women started their stitching and embroidery class in Jan-13

The instructor Mrs.Anitha teaching the basics to the women.

I heard from the women that most of them are working in chilli farms and go downs as chilli pickers and they earn around 100-150 rs per day.

It is a difficult job for them as all day long they have to work, surrounded by thousands of tons of chillies.

Here they have the opportunity of joining the sewing class and they are making out time to utilize the free training classes.

This would definitely help them to set up their own alternative work source for them.
