The Kiwimbi Sewing Project is up and running. Students started practicing on plain fabric cloth and have advanced to using printed fabric. Madam Bridget and Madam Ann, the Kiwimbi sewing teachers, are hard at work along with the students. The ultimate goal is to produce school uniforms, which can be seen in the photo below.
One of Kiwimbi's ultimate missions is to encourage self-sufficiency. The sewing program teaches the local women of Amagoro a trade, aiding in that endeavor.
