Help design a professional catalogue for the woolen products

Step:

Who can help us make a professional catalogue for the promotion of knitting wear produced by the women of Yoshinkhel? I attach the catalogue in Word format designed by our neighbour Freddie as a resource. Sabina also posted some more pictures under the promotion task.

Concretely, Third World Craft asked us to provide a catalogue with price list as they will include the women in their order plan for this fiscal year (July 08 -June 09).

Create a website to promote the woolen products

Step:

Leonie, Tim and Ilona as part of a school assignment have collected information on marketing the woollen products made by the women of Yoshinkhel. You can see their final document attached.

It also includes ideas for a website for Yoshinkhel. Anyone who could help with creating such a website?

The website should make advertisement for the products, and people could also buy online on this site. Both individuals interested in buying the products and also wholesellers should be addressed. They might be especially interested that it is also possible to send their own designs.

We are looking for hobby designers or professionals who would be interested in creating innovate designs for the products the women of Yoshinkhel are knitting!

Find volunteer trainers for skills training

Step:

Following the knitting training, Sabina has several other ideas in mind for how to increase the income possibilities of the underprivileged women in Yoshinkhel. These include tailoring, and soap and candle making. But of course other skills might also be interesting for the women, so in coordination with Sabina volunteers with any other useful skills would be very welcome too!
