Home grown school uniforms for our kids!

Pictured here two of the children who have stolen the hearts of alot of people Celenia and Alfredo, it does not seem long since we brought them into the orphanage sick and very weak from severe malnutrition, now they are up and running and off to school

Up till now our children have been going to school with no uniforms, which the goverment allows but is not good for the poor children who obviously feel awkward and left out. Its not only a huge joy to see them so excited and happy but even more than that our very own sewing school in Maxixe has produced the uniforms themselves, we started this project in Maxixe just over a year ago bringing in a tutor for six months to teach the ladies how to sew. Now these ladies are producing clothes to order.
