On May 2, 2024, the Walkaroo Foundation, in partnership with NMCT, inaugurated a tailoring training project in Chettipalayam to empower local women through skill development. The ceremony was graced by invited guests from Walkaroo, NMCT representatives, and community leaders. The project has attracted approximately 20 women from the community, offering them a chance to acquire valuable tailoring skills at no cost. The training, conducted over three months on advanced automatic machines, covers a range of techniques from basic stitching to intricate embroidery and Aari work. The skills learned from this program equip participants to explore employment opportunities or entrepreneurial endeavours independently, enhancing their economic independence and contributing to community development.
