While we were in Jinja we had the opportunity to celebrate the opening of the women's empowerment center. Here women from around the region will be able to come and learn skills that will help them support their families. The center will also be able to utilize its land to grow food for the community and children will be able to attend primary school in the building on site. What a blessing it is to see our support in action!
Below the article link are some of the pictures I took at the center. I think the brown paper skirts (and pants which are not pictured) are so cool and very inventive! These amazing women do not let their lack of fabric stand in the way of them improving their sewing skills!
