Centre de formation des jeunes filles

Mukamurara Emilienne
KIBUNGO (Rwanda)

Training of young girls from disadvantaged families. The sewing workshop is currently equipped with 15 sewing machines and 6 knitting machines. The girls receive training in embroidery, sewing or knitting. After training, they are given the opportunity of paid work in the studio. Their work consists of making uniforms for pupils in primary and secondary education. With the money saved they have the opportunity to purchase a sewing machine themselves. This allows them to work at home and to earn their own income on an independent basis. The help of benefactors is a welcome contribution for the payment of staff responsible for training.
