benang.org is a social enterprise marketplace platform for the underserved or vulnerable communities of tailors and seamstresses, designers and fashionpreneurs to promote and sell their apparels and tailoring services. You can learn more about benang.org at this link here.
The underserved or vulnerable communities of benang.org are the B40 communities of tailors and seamstresses in Malaysia.
The pioneer communities of tailors and seamstresses are 60 women and girls from Beladin, Sarawak and the YWCA Vocational Training Opportunity Center (VTOC) graduates.
We invite all B40 communities of tailors and seamstresses to be a part of the benang.org communities in the long term.
benang.org is a strategic social enterprise initiative of the global non-profit, NGO, International Women’s Federation of Commerce and Industry Malaysia (IWFCIM) in supporting the key Sustainable Development Goals of eradicating poverty and gender equality.
Since 2016, we have constructively developed the women of Beladin communities in Sarawak – trained them sewing and tailoring, built the Beladin Fashion Center and sourced clothing contracts – in our effort to help them earn extra income.
benang.org is natural progression of our effort to enable them to tap a bigger market to realize their hopes and dreams.
The benang.org initiative is supported by Yayasan Hasanah.
We rise by lifting others.
