Some exciting things have been happening on the jewelry front. Over the past couple of weeks a few more families accepted a microloan and the girls have been busy starting their businesses. The sound of drilling can be heard just about every day at the club. Even the girls who haven't yet been given a microloan are helping out. The girls are being very resourceful too-finding new beads and seeds on their own and coming up with new designs. A bunch of completed necklaces were just brought to the States to be photographed and featured on the upcoming website. Stay tuned for the launch...it's coming soon.
Most exciting of all, is that Anamilka was able to complete her loan repayment last week! She was very good at managing her money and deciding how much she wanted to keep for herself and how much she needed to repay. We are so proud of her and can see her confidence growing with every necklace she produces. Way to go Anamilka!!!
