New group, Chigwirizano!

Today we got the opportunity to meet our new group. Now ou may be wondering about this but NAPHAM has decided we should work with this new groups instead of Mtsiliza who is having leadership issues. 
The new group consists of men and women but the women are primarily the knitters and the men are tailors. They were very excited about working with us and all the materials that we brought with us. We spent a good deal of time teaching the women some of the new patterns. 
It is amazing to be able to teach despite the language barrier, we all speak knitting. We will be meeting with them again on Wednesday to see their products and if they have any questions.
Tomorrow will be a great relaxing Mother's Day with no real plans. It will also be our last day to relax before a jam packed week, so much to do when we are in country. Don't forget, this month to celebrate our 3 year anniversary donor will be matching all donations up to $2,000, so now is the time to double your impact. A donation is also a great Mother's Day gift!
