Youth President Namrata Goyal says,
“The annual Mijwan Fashion Show brings the spotlight on Mijwan and gives us the means to carry on all the work behind the scenes that MWS does. We run The Kaifi Azmi School and Inter-College for girls, The Kaifi Azmi Computer Centre and The Kaifi Azmi Sewing and Embroidery Centre. The Sewing and Embroidery Centre started with 40 girls and today it has 400 workers spread over 10 villages in U.P”
This is the 9th annual fundraiser for Mijwan in support of the movement started by Late Kaifi Azmi in 1993. Noted Urdu poet and writer Kaifi Azmi founded Mijwan Welfare Society with the goal of making Mijwan a scalable and replicable model for development with a focus on the girl child and women. In 1993 Mijwan didn’t exist on the map of India whereas today Mijwan is known worldwide.
