Saying goodbye to the Chisomo support group

Today was another difficult day because we had to say goodbye to more friends at the Chisomo support group. Not everyone was there because there was a training but it was nice to see those who were available. We spent the afternoon reviewing the materials that we gave them and advice for keeping track of all of their sales and money. They have already started to receive orders for scarfs in their soccer team colors, I know they will make great progress until the next time we see them.
Tomorrow we are hoping to get the partnership agreement with NAPHAM signed as well as is it a possible knitting HIV/AIDS group at the local hospital. Tomorrow is also our last full day in Malawi.
I'm sad to leave because I love working with everyone here and to see the great progress but I think it is time to go home and work on the US side of things until we are able to come back.
