Womens Bread and Sewing Microbusiness/ Honduras

I decided on this Peace Corps Partnership Project for a recent 10% donation (from paycheck):

Womens Bread and Sewing Microbusiness

Location
HONDURAS
Volunteer Coordinator(s)
E Estey of IL

The womens group in Santa Anita was founded in 2004 as a way to provide economic opportunities for women in the community. The women’s group decided to develop a micro business producing both tailor-made clothing and bread. The group has been working with the Peace Corps Volunteer to develop a project plan to solicit financial support and to organize trainings on business management and marketing techniques. The group has been success in obtaining local support from two non-governmental organizations. These donations have assisted them in purchasing ovens, baking materials and building a business center. They are requesting Partnership assistance to purchase the sewing machines and initial sewing materials to initiate the project.

Help contribute to this project?!
