SOLINA

Solina was homeless and begging for food before working as a SAME SKY artisan.  Solina now has a home, “peace of mind” about the future, and is able to support her family of four.  Solina’s immunity has also improved since she began crocheting bracelets. She is so grateful to SAME SKY for providing for her and her family. ”When I’m gone they [my children] will have a house… they’ll have something… because I won’t be here for long.”

UPDATE: Solina has bought a small piece of land where she grows vegetables and is saving money for a house!

UPDATE 1/30/12: “I’m happy to be writing to let you know how I’m doing. My children and I are doing fine; I am taking my medication; my children are studying and eating as usual. I was given a loan and was able to buy myself a cow. Now I have hope that in June my cow will have bared a calf and from that be able to have some milk. That makes me very happy. I have faith that this year in 2012 I’ll progress even more. What I wish for this year is that I can get my own house for me to live with my family. I thank all the clients that buy the bracelets. I also thank them for keeping us close at heart as they write to us. This makes me very happy.”

“I had nothing but now I am woman, I am a mother and I am some one. Same sky has restored my dignity as a woman, it has restored my dignity in my community and I hope that all of us Same Sky women in Rwanda continue to be an inspiration. Thank you." BRIGETTE

“I thank you for restoring my dignity and pride as a mother with five children going to school and empowering me through Same Sky. We pray for you everyday that you continue to buy and God will bless you so that I can continue to make the bracelet.” JACQUELINE
