Help Women by Providing Tailoring Training

Dear Friends of SERUDS Non-profit,

We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generous sponsorship of our mission to support economically disadvantaged women. Your compassion and commitment have been instrumental in helping us design and sustain livelihood programs that empower women and girls, enabling them to create sustainable sources of income and build confidence through Self-Help Groups (SHGs).

Since 2003, SERUDS has been initiating self-employment training programs that have positively transformed the lives of countless families. These programs do more than improve household incomes—they also create pathways for children’s education, as we encourage women to prioritize schooling and understand its value for the next generation.

Skills That Build Independence

Many women and girls trained through our programs have gone on to establish small tailoring and embroidery businesses. They now stitch school uniforms, design blouses, and add intricate zari work on sarees. These skills allow them to earn an additional income of approximately 5,500 per month, which greatly supports household needs, healthcare, and their children’s education.

Comprehensive Training Programs

Our six-month fashion design courses are designed especially for women from the most disadvantaged communities in Mandlem Village and Praja Nagar. Each batch trains 25 women and girls with hands-on sessions and provides all necessary materials, including threads, fabric, needles, and scissors.

Upon completion, participants receive:

• A certificate of completion, boosting their confidence and credibility

• An orientation program covering marketing skills, pricing, and customer outreach

• Guidance on accessing small business loans through banks and financial institutions to help them launch their enterprises

Your Impact

All of this is made possible because of your generosity. Your donations directly translate into job-oriented training, business opportunities, and sustainable income for women who otherwise face economic hardship. With these opportunities, they not only support their families but also emerge as role models in their communities.

Your sponsorship is helping us create a generation of empowered women who are taking charge of their lives, ensuring financial independence, and shaping brighter futures for their children.

On behalf of every woman whose life has been touched by your kindness, we thank you sincerely for sponsoring life-changing fashion design courses and livelihood opportunities.

With gratitude,
Team SERUDS
