It's hard to believe there are only 55 days left in the year!

 Your monthly donations this year have made an incredible difference! Because of you, 30 teen girls learned to sew, style, and step into confidence this year. 

 You made that happen, and so much more!

Recently, 11 students from our Girls' Vocational Center in Buwudha set off on an unforgettable field trip to Jinja, the city where the Nile begins and dreams got a little bigger.

 For most of the girls, the day was full of firsts: first time leaving their village, first time in a taxi, first time eating in a restaurant, first time in Jinja, and choosing their own fabric at the market!

You've heard several of the stories of girls who found our vocational center this year and are now enrolled in our classes. 

 This week, Hilda and I are bringing you Martha's story. Just over a year ago, Martha graduated from our two-year tailoring certificate program.  

 Now, her life is much different, and that is all because of you! Just look at how she shines in the photo! This is the life-changing difference your donations make.

It fills my heart when our team sends photos from our Vocational Center in Buwudha village: the smiles, the laughter, the pride in every girl's face.

Each one of these young women has faced unthinkable challenges from trafficking, violence, early marriage, and a lack of opportunity. But today, they stand taller, confident and hopeful. That transformation exists because of you!
