Sharmila’s Own Shop

Sharmila was brought to the Women’s Safe Haven (WSH) 7 years ago. During her time of healing and rehabilitation, she learned the skill of tailoring.

Now, she has her own tailoring shop and is doing well sewing clothes and earning a sustainable living. She earns Rps 2,000 to 2,500 [US$16-20] per day and even more in festival and wedding seasons. She is very happy to be independent and run her own business.

We are happy to see these women turn their lives around and embrace the freedom that they have been given.
