Project's focus area: Providing sewing skills training for 50 vulnerable girls in rural Zimbabwe will provide hope.
Project Needs and Beneficiaries

This project targets orphaned and vulnerable girls at the lower end of the economic strata in their community. These girls are prone to all forms of abuse and can easily resort to prostitution when faced with profound economic challenges. 50 girls identified in the ASAP/Catholic Relief Services funded Out of School Adolescents project will gain sewing skills, self esteem and hope for the future. This is an ongoing project that will train a few girls, as we have the funds available.

Activities
A series of training sessions will be offered at Munyaradzi Training Center in rural Nyanga area. The 50 girls selected will gain sewing skills in order to prepare them for employment or self-employment.
Expected Outcomes
This project provides desperately needed survival skills for these selected out of school girls. But this is really about providing some hope where there is little.
Project Message
"It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness." - A positive view of life in spite of the suffering these out of school youth endure.
- Joseph Miti, ASAP Program Mgr. Zimbabwe
