Dress a Girl |
Who are we and what do we do...We are sewers from the United States, Canada, Hong Kong and Uganda working with Hope4Women International to serve girls so poor they can only dream of ever owning a new dress. We transform used pillowcases, sheets and donated fabric remnants into dresses any little girl can be proud of. Our pattern is simple but produces versatile dresses quickly. And by adding a pocket, a little lace or a vintage handkerchief these dresses become even more unique. Some ladies hide a handmade doll in the pocket for a sweet surprise making it even more special!! In the last year, we have delivered over 12,000 dresses to 34 countries. Our ambitious goal this year is 50,000 dresses to girls in need. |
