Sudan Sewing Classes Looking for Fabric |
South Sudan Community Restoration Program Seeking DonationsKent Lutheran Church has been conducting free sewing classes for South Sudanese refugee men and women in our community who have expressed an interest in learning how to sew using a sewing machine. Each participant was given a sewing machine for their home use. For some this class is a means to bring micro-business opportunities back to South Sudan, for others it is for personal enrichment and sustenance. In preparation for our next SSCRP trip we are preparing sessions to sew Little Dresses for Africa and Little Shorts for Africa. This will provide sewing experience for those involved in our classes as well as opportunity for others to become involved in our restoration mission. Dresses and shorts sewn during these sessions will be delivered to Malawal Upper Nile State by our 2013 team.
We are in need of of cotton fabric and multi-purpose thread donations to use for this project. For more information or to arrange to make a donation, please contact: Debbie Hunt at 253-854-3917 [Call: 253-854-3917] or deborahjhunt@att.net
