Good news with the raining of our 100 women. We have linked with an expert in bamboo Johann Bruisell who is not only growing bamboo for sustainable purposes but is not training 20 of our women. Training is on the cutting, preparation and management of the raw bamboo followed by product development. Beautiful designs in lightning and mirrors is ongoing. The women who are fully equipped with all the necessary tools and equipment have also been given a workshop space for the Umhluma Foundation. We have been training and paying the transport for the women to attend weekly training to ensure that they have a bright future with income opportunities through their own hands. The only way to rid society of crippling ills is to overcome poverty. Poverty brings despair on so many levels and it usually falls on the shoulders of women. Please help us to help others for a brighter tomorrow for all. Here are the links to our social media, hopefully you will connect with us there if you are unable to donate directly.
