“Thermal Printing Workshop.”

This workshop provides an opportunity for young people to develop their computer skills and learn about modern programs to facilitate printing on items such as gift boxes, plastic bags, cups, T-shirts, backpacks, and handbags. It can also be used to print banners for goods, plastic products, textiles, different types of fabric, bags of various sizes, school pencil cases, and pins with the club logo on them.

The Inner Wheel Club of New Cairo supports this small workshop by providing them with all their printing needs.

Mrs. Nihal Al-Bakry expressed her gratitude to Mrs. Shahinaz Hashim and everyone involved in the association’s organized work wishing them continued success in the future.

The Inner Wheel Club of New Cairo would highly appreciate it if other Inner Wheel Clubs supported the workshop by purchasing its products, which would benefit both parties. The young people will have the opportunity to develop their capabilities, and the clubs can purchase high-quality printing services at a reasonable price.

Apart from Thermal Printing, The Friends of a Bright Tomorrow Association also offers another workshop for printing Calendars and Business Cards. It’s a one-stop shop for all your printing and designing needs!
