Shoshana Sewing Centre, Pedanandipadu

Present group of women for sewing class at Shoshana sewing project - Pedanandipadu village

Started last year - now towards the end of the course. Blouse stitching usually taught at the end of the course.  The women after they start working on their own, they could earn 150 to 200 rupees per piece if they are good in making models.

Many people lost their work during the lockdown and there is still decrease in man power in many factories, companies etc due to Corona. 

The sewing course has been a good  source of income for these needy women especially during these difficult times where they couldn't find any other work.

 

Shoshana Medical Project - Dasaripalem - Guntur 

Dasaripalem is one of the remote areas in Guntur. Large area with more than a thousand families mostly with backward communities like daily workers and agricultural labourers. Shoshana started the medical help at Dasaripalem along with a local Ngo who is working for children's education.

Shoshana is providing basic medication along with free Blood pressure checkups under the supervision of a trained nurse. Since the area is far away from the city, without proper roads and transport facility, having a first aid centre is very helpful for the people. In my last visit, came across women who are in need of diabetic check ups and medication.

During the lockdown time also the medical centre was open to the people who are in need of help.

Thankful to all the donors for keeping faith in our work and have been supporting the needy people all these years.
