Our recent graduates need sewing machines! These
women are really glad that they have had the opportunity to participate in the
sewing classes with Don Alberto and learned how to use a sewing machine, but
now that they have completed the course they do not have a way to keep
practicing because they are still waiting to receive their sewing machines. The
women would love to keep making things, so they can start selling what they
have learned and to improve their incomes. They can also use the machine to
make their own clothes or mend clothes for others that also contributes to
reduce their expenses.
Buying a Singer sewing machine with foot pedal is
the best option, as many families cannot always afford to pay electricity
bills, or they’re electricity gets cut off if they were not able to pay the
bills.
Some sponsors choose to bring a sewing
machine to donate to the sewing project when they are visiting with us. A
sewing machine is an asset to help a woman to achieve her goals of making an
income. To donate more than one sewing machine, please send us an e-mail
at sewing@mayanfamilies.org.
