FUNDING ANNOUNCEMENT!
We’re thrilled to share that we’ve launched a new sewing school cohort in Lubumbashi in partnership with Kimbilio. Over several weeks, these talented women are mastering sewing skills, from crafting school uniforms to garments for local markets, that offer real job opportunities and lasting livelihoods for themselves and their families. Graduates also receive sewing machines and starter kits to help launch their new businesses.
Saidiana is also hosting popup fundraisers, designed to raise awareness about the Congo and feature beautiful handmade items from Africa. These popups double as outreach and fundraising opportunities that support our mission on the ground.
PIG BREEDING PROJECT UPDATE
Thanks to your generous support, the pig breeding project is thriving. We’re excited to share photos of the newest arrivals: healthy baby pigs!
Your donations helped complete the construction of the pig pens, creating a safe and sustainable environment for the pigs. Funding also covered veterinary visits, giving the team access to expert guidance on nutrition, care, and the essential vitamins needed for healthy pig growth.
These improvements are laying the foundation for a self-sustaining income source for the women, empowering them to support their families and invest back into their communities.
