Threads Of Empowerment: Women Weaving Their Own Success Stories
From the remote landscapes of Ladakh to the bustling streets of Pune, Usha Silai Schools are transforming lives by equipping women with sewing skills, fostering entrepreneurship, and creating sustainable livelihoods. Through partnerships with local organizations, these initiatives are empowering women like Kaneez Fatima and the women of Meghalaya's Miktoksi brand to stitch not just clothes but stories of resilience and independence

For Kaneez Fatima it all started with a simple sewing machine. A tool that most see as an ordinary household object became an extraordinary tool of transformation in Kaneez's hands. The turning point came when she joined the USHA Silai School. After learning sewing from Usha silai school, Kaneez Fatima completed a 1 year diploma course from Ladakh skill development centre.
