PERICHORESIS is able to run, since the beginning of 2018, a Sewing project for refugees of the NGO’s accommodation and integration programs in Katerini, Greece and also for people from Roma community. The Sewing project runs all five days of the week, with days divided between the women’s and the men’s sewing groups. Each group has its own instructor, a refugee from a PERICHORESIS project with a professional sewing background, who works closely with the students.
Τhanks to generous funding from the Women’s World Day of Prayer (WWDP) German Committee
Women’s World Day of Prayer (WWDP)
Days are divided into multiple sewing sessions, each session with approximately 10-15 persons.
In addition to being a valuable life skill to learn, the Sewing project is also critical for the social development of our beneficiaries and may even turn into a business enterprise down the road. Through the Sewing project the Social Cooperative Enterprise “Peri Ergon” was developed (www.periergon.gr)
