New Sewing Center Facility Opens Welcoming Growth at Ashagram

IPP’s first sewing center, Ashagram, has expanded into a brand new facility on the beautiful campus outside of Mumbai, India! This facility allows the thriving sewing center to move from cramped temporary quarters into a more spacious facility. There will now be plenty of room for the IPP seamstresses to measure fabric, create patterns and craft Punjammies™. Each step in the process is a part of re-building the self-worth of young women one stitch at a time. 

Together with our partner in Mumbai and the generous contributions of IPP supporters, we were honored to be a part of the opening of this fabulous center in August. The new facility increases capacity to teach even more women the trade of sewing, a high-quality, sustainable skill. The space allows for better quality control, more organized processes, and ultimately a better education for the women who learn and grow there.
