The grant will be used to purchase sewing machines which will be given to the youths and women for self economic empowerment with a view to alleviate poverty thus improving their standards of living. There is a high school drop out rate due to lack of school fees, early pregnancies for the girl child and widows arising from the HIV/AIDS scourge, (most are women and single parents taking care of the children. Apprenticeship/Vocational trainning is a solution to this problem and currently the sewing machine costs approx. USD100. |
