We wanted to let you know that the crates, which were filled with donated sewing supplies, made it safely to Port-de-Paix and Mole St. Nicolas. Here's a photo of the Port-de-Paix crate being unloaded.
Special thank you to everyone who donated fabric and sewing supplies, and for our wonderful volunteers who helped sort and pack thousands of pounds of supplies in our warehouse. The annual shipment is an important part of the ministry, and it wouldn't be possible without our generous donors and volunteers.
Learning how to make vests
The Port-de-Paix and Mole St. Nicolas sewing students have been busy this spring learning how to make vests. Guerby, pictured below, is a student in the Port-de-Paix sewing program and he took the assignment a step further and made a pair of matching pants. We love the students' enthusiasm and creativity.
Thank you again for your continued support of the sewing students! Your support equips these students with a practical skill that they can use and enjoy for the rest of their lives.
Our graduates are top notch
A few weeks ago we shared a photo of Wilson, a 2018 graduate from our Port-de-Paix sewing program, wearing a beautiful sport coat that he recently made. Well here's fellow sewing program graduate, Schneider, modeling a suit he recently made. He made the pants, shirt and jacket. Nice work, Schneider!
We’re overjoyed to see our sewing program graduates continue to master their craft. This wouldn’t be possible without people who believe in the programs and believe in helping our students create a better life for themselves and their families. Vocational training isn’t a quick fix, but the skills learned in our training programs last a lifetime.
