CHANGE 4 GOOD

BERNINA is supporting the Usthi schools in Ananda and Penthakata with five quality sewing machines. These are already being used in handicraft classes.

With the CHANGE 4 GOOD campaign, customers can trade in their old model when buying a new BERNINA sewing machine. The used sewing machines are reconditioned by BERNINA and then put to use again in charity projects.

Five donated machines were brought to the two locations of the Usthi schools Ananda and Penthakata by BERNINA International and BERNINA India. There they are already being put to use. Since the older students are back in attendance classes, handicraft lessons can be held again for certain classes.

We are grateful to BERNINA Switzerland for the sewing machines and look forward to further cooperation.
