"Our teachers have been incredibly supportive, helping us learn how to use a sewing machine and answering every question we had about stitching clothes. I used to pay others for this, but now I can even stitch dresses for my daughter."

Program Graduate

"I was given a sewing machine at no cost. Now, I am stitching my own clothes and clothes for the neighbors as well. This machine is very useful to our family. I am stitching for all widows free of charge and I am willing to help the poor."

Mary
