Because it is the Neema Girls.
Last week when we visited the Neema project we decided to start a project with them. These girls have been rescued off the street or from the potintial of going onto the streets. Upon meeting them they are so sweet and innocent looking. It is hard to believe anything was any different than what they are now.
The project the intern girls decided to start with them was to make cards and jewlery that can be sold both in Africa and in the United States. We wanted to use our first day testing what skills they had in order to know what projects to start. We colored, cut and beaded all of which the girls did very well. The picutures are of the girls beading. Thanks Christopher for the beautiful beads!!
