New benefits for the sewing room
We have found a new use for the sewing room from Okakarara. What it is and where it will now be rebuilt, you can learn in our article. The sustainable idea of reusing the materials already available is an essential part of this.
Thanks to a generous donor, we can in Okakarara build a new sewing room. By creating a larger, solidly built house with an expanded showroom and a larger workshop area, where space will be made for additional sewing machines, both production and sales can be increased in the post-Corona period.
But why should we scrap the zinc walls and roof of the existing sewing workshop?
The old building is moving to Ongombombonde and will then serve a new purpose: It will be converted into living and storage space. Our vegetable garden is located in Ongombombonde, 8 kilometers away, where, among other things, cabbage, beetroot, and corn are grown.
Convinced by Hendrik's green thumb

Thanks to Hendrik vegetable growing is going wonderfully. There are hardly any losses anymore, and we trust Hendrik and his plans to expand the cultivation areas and also to hire more employees . This will create additional jobs and also provide more vegetables and plants for sale and for the soup kitchens.
Create living space
Some employees come from villages far away to Ongombombonde, which is why additional living quarters are needed. We now want to build these with the materials from the previous sewing room.
Support our sustainable project and donate to help build the living space.
Here we see the dismantling operation by the craftsmen in Okakarara. The zinc walls are carefully taken down and, at the next opportunity, brought to the village of Ongombombonde, 8 kilometers away.
