10 Mile Daily Walk to Freedom

Meet Sharon, a strong and determined mother who is fighting to provide for her family. Sharon’s journey has been one of resilience and determination. As a single mother of 3 children and with no education, she struggled to make ends meet and provide for her family. Despite the challenges she faced, Sharon refused to give up on her dreams of providing a better life for her children. Initially she survived on menial jobs to fend for herself and her family. When her husband passed away, she knew she had to find a new way to support her family. That's when she heard about the sewing course offered by the Give Amore organization located just about 5 miles away from her home. 

Sharon story took a positive turn when she made the life changing decision to enroll in our sewing program. She enrolled in the course and started learning how to sew. The long distance did not hinder her. She walked almost 10 miles every day to attend the classes. She practiced tirelessly, working hard to refine her skills until she was able to create a wide range of designs and attires including dresses, shirts and shorts. She graduated from the program in April 2023.

Thanks to the sewing machine and training that she received and to capitalize on her new acquired machine and skills, Sharon was able to set up a sewing business at the nearest market. She is able to make and repair different attires hence enabling her to feed her children and pay their school fees. She is also able to pass the acquired skills to other members of the community hence making a difference in her community. She is so grateful that she got this opportunity which has changed her life for the better.

Sharon's story is a powerful reminder of the difference that our sewing program is making in the lives of those in need. Thank you for making this a success. You too can be part of our transformative program.
