“Since I’ve been doing this job, it’s helped me a lot to support my own needs and those of my brothers.” - Raı̈ssa, Democratic Republic of Congo

Here’s a gift that’s cut from a different cloth.

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, our partners are providing practical skills in sewing and tailoring. These made-to-measure training sessions help young people earn a living and gain the confidence to create their own bright futures.

“We received sewing machines and some basic materials and that’s how I became a dressmaker,” says Raı̈ssa, 20. “Since I’ve been doing this job, it’s helped me a lot to support my own needs and those of my brothers. I’m saving up to buy other sewing machines so that I can open a large workshop in the future.”

With your support, people like Raı̈ssa are making the world a better place, one stitch at a time.
