We did it!

With your help we were able to raise $406 to buy two new sewing machines for the women at the
 Cutting and Tailoring Center in Madhavapatnam, these sewing machines will be used to help make the school children’s uniforms.  One is a special machine for making button holes, the other would be similar to a serger.
Check out the pictures!


and...


The  new school year will be starting for the kids any day now (they are waiting for the weather to cool of a little bit because its around 120 right now:-)

The women have the new sewing machines but they too are waiting for the weather to cool down.   It's a little hard to work on a sewing machine in 120 weather.  I think we can all understand:-)


Thank you all so very much for your endless support!  We would not be able to do any of this with out you!

God Bless,

Our next goal


Why did we start "made with love" in the first place? Because I wanted to help the women in India learn a trade so they would not have to steal or work the streets (as prostitutes) in order to support themselves and their families. That is why I am so excited that the next items my sisters and I will be raising money for will be two sewing machines for the women in the Cutting and Tailoring Center of Madhavapatnam so they can make the school children’s uniforms!  One is a special machine for making button holes, the other would be similar to a serger.

Joyful Journeys Ministry has hired a woman to teach these ladies how to make the uniforms for the children., now they just need the special machines to help with making button holes, steams and hemming.  We need a total of $406 in order to purchase the two machines.  To help us reach our goal you can purchase a "made with love" item or simply make a donation...you can help make a difference!

By adding this extra teacher and providing them with the new machines, these women will now not only learn a trade, they will have an opportunity to start earning money by using their skills to make uniforms for the children in the Marshall Public School! 

Some pictures have been coming in of our new cutting and tailoring center. Check them out!

This is the new teacher

This is one of the ladies...excited after working on a new pattern

More women, look how young some of them are.


And this is how they deliver the sewing machines:-)

Thank you for your love and support!
