Receiving Donations

Today I began to receive donations from several of my neighbors and some Girl scout leaders. I am grateful for the donations of fabric, because now I am able to make more dresses and washable pads. Thank you all for supporting my cause,  I truly appreciate it.

Madre María – Centro de Formación para Madres Adolescentes: Donating a Sewing Machine

After my worshops across Beni, I returned to Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Santa Cruz, Bolivia for a second workshop at "Madre María" – Centro de Formación para Madres Adolescentes (Center for Homeless Teen Mothers). At the previous workshop, I encountered the need to donate a sewing machine for this center, so that the girls may continue making washable pads for the center and other rural communities in need within Santa Cruz. With Hermana (Sister) Cristina donating the sewing machine for the center.   At this workshop, there was a nun from the Hogar San Lorenzo Orfanato ( Orphanage) in Santa Cruz. She humbly requested a sewing machine for her orphanage.
