Stitch-N-Style
Since our inception in 1996, YMEN has provided entrepreneurial education to its students. Each student is expected to complete a 20-week course that prepares them for startin their own business. YMEN has made an important step forward by starting a commercial-grade, student run embroidery business to provide a real world laboratory for students to learn manufacturing skills, sales techniques, customer service, quliaty management, and accurate finanicial record keeping. The students name this business, Stitch-N-Style.
Through Stitch-N-Style we generate earned income while making a life-long investment in the lives of our students.
