The support of $100 received from donor Anonymous helped us buy 10 lancets, 10 scissors, 15 paint brushes and 5 cups of color paints to support the few materials we had. Thanks to sponsor Anonymous
In collaboration with Wellpaper.org (INDIA), a group of 15 disadvantaged women from the community, most of them are widows, have been trained during three months from January 2021 on Eco-craft for income generation. They up cycled local dry waste (cartons, papers, plastic bottles, etc…) into salable eco-friendly items, all are handmade and chemical free.
Since April 2021, they started to transform wastes into Eco friendly items from the very limited capacity they have. Now they can make same jewelry needed on the market. But they still need technical and financial skills to improve their work, to get out of poverty, malnutrition and depression. Charitable support is still needed.
The leader of the group, when they have already received support, said: “Let’s not get discouraged; things are possible, wastes can be made into money! And life can change! Thank you Dufatanye organization and donors”
