Rukia,l a single other of two, sits in our Made with Amore sewing class eager for the skills and opportunity for her to provide for her family.
In our February newsletter publication we had asked for your help to save our tailoring school program and guess what??? We are so gratified by your intervention that aided in saving our life transformative program from shutting down hope for a brighter future for many who need it.
In the class of seven sits Rukia (shown above) a single mother of two who not only enrolled to gain sewing skills, but also set on the avenue of entrepreneurship via the gifts of a sewing machine, sewing kit and a stool upon her graduation. Engulfed in abject poverty, this opportunity is not an alternative for her, but the only option to keep her children fed and in school.
The news that she will continue with her training successfully to completion came as a pleasant surprise to her and the rest of her classmates. She described it simply as “Answered prayers!” amidst joy of disbelief.
The sewing team and the rest of Give Amore family thank you, our dedicated donors, for this wonderful act of neighborliness, love and compassion.
