UZIMA! (LIFE!)

 TBA's goal through UZIMA! is to reach needy young adults, vulnerable students, mostly girls, single mamas, those who are survivors, sexual abused and youth with disabilities, empowering them through sustainable trade training.

This report presents the successful work of TBA in Bukavu, South Kivu region, DRC;

the new class of 2023, with 9 students, began February 6, 2023 and will end October 30, 2023. The class will be offered 2 months of professional apprenticeship before graduation.

This program brings so much joy and confidence in anticipation of life transformation and success in our students' futures.

The teachers report that they feel so encouraged when they look in the faces of these vulnerable young students, and see how happy they are to be taking this tailoring course.

All of them are eagerly looking forward to graduation day in December, when they will exit the program and step our into a new trade career and make an impact on their lives, breaking the chains of poverty. They can't wait to start their own tailoring boutiques!
