Training of Seamstresses
|
|
The
seamstresses are poor young girls from the countryside.
·
They
live a great distance from Kim Long and therefore need to be hosted, fed
and their laundry washed
·
They come
to Son Ca II to learn the trade of seamstress. Their training includes all the required
supplies and tools
·
During
the day, they work and study. In the evening, they share the collegiate
life of Son Ca II, just like all other girls living there.

This project is
heavily sponsored by our friends of the Centre
Socio Culturel Audrey Bartier of Wimereux,
France.
Young French girls
and boys were the motivation for this project.

About 10 student seamstresses have joined the workshop since its
origin
This structural project is the very first in Son CA II. Hence, its importance is quite strategic for us, because a lot of
investment has been put in this brand new sheltered structure since 2005.
The training duration of the seamstress workshop varies from 2 to 3 years depending on the age and level of the students.
Making the workplace operational is the first set-up phase of the
technical infrastructure. Once available, the workplace will operate in a recurring
manner during the 2 or 3 year cycle.
