Huntington, South AfricaWe employ women as educators (2 women), administrators (3 part-time women), and assistants (2 women), we educate aspiring entrepreneurs and employees, and we better communities through our donations of crafted products and sponsored events. (While learning their trade, the learners practice sewing on projects that are donated locally. In Huntington, the women made uniforms for themselves and for local schools.) In April 2022, seven women graduated from our sewing apprenticeship program. They were each given a sewing machine and a microloan to help launch their own business. Two of the graduates were hired as assistants to help teach the next class of learners. In May, another eight women began their seamstress journey. They will graduate in 2023.$28,175
Mabarhule, South Africa In 2022, Construction on the By Grace Textile and Community Center was completed and sewing classes are now regularly taught in the building. Here, we not only employ teachers from the local communities (4 women), we engage with the nearby high schools, ensuring that teenagers have a safe place to go when school gets out, all while learning a skill that will serve them throughout their lives! This year, 30 teens were taught in the program, and in 2023 we have plans for 150 teens to participate in the offerings. While studying, the learners produce reusable sanitary napkins that are donated to local women through a partnership with CefPads.$32,517
Tamale, GhanaAll five of our apprentices who took the national credentialing exams via the Ghana National Tailors and Dressmakers Association (GNTDA) passed and are now working as seamstresses and dressmakers in three different communities in Northern Ghana. Each woman who completed the program was gifted with her very own sewing machine, and we are working to ensure they have all the resources necessary to run successful businesses.$1,006

ExplanationOur Huntington location is the embodiment of our mission to educate women so they are able to earn a living wage. In addition to the salaries paid to the Master Seamstress, we spent $21228.13 running this program. This includes a monthly stipend (~$63/mth each) for the learners (7 women Jan-April 2022 and 8 women May-Dec 2022), daily meals, transportation to and from the training program, training materials, a "gift" of a sewing machine to each girl upon her graduation, and a microloan for each graduate based on her request in her business plan ($1,907.22 given in total). Our Mabarhule location and project received a large percentage of our budget as specific donations were given to build a Community and Textile Center where our sewing training program for young women and teens will be housed. We spent $32516.76 on materials and labor for the build. We also outfitted the building with all the necessary supplies and materials to launch our educational and training program, including fabrics, patterns, sewing machines, interlockers, cutting tables, curriculum, practice materials, and more. Both Huntington and Mabarhule are located near Skukuza, South Africa where we did some community development work with our learners that cost $1,420.19. We hired the seamstresses to sew school uniforms and reusable sanitary pads, and purchased food products and school supplies for some of the single mother's children. Our partnerships and investments into the local community helps us maintain good standing and a stellar reputation. Our Tamale location requested an additional spend of $189 on training materials (fabrics, thread, and flour sacks for practice).ExplanationTxt
