MAKING PURSES IN ORDER TO GO TO COLLEGE
Perla Fernández is a motivated,
talented and industrious young lady, as this story will show. In order to help
finance her university education, she recently joined the purse course offered
by La Sagrada Familia parish at its Training
Center for women in Sabana Yegua (Dominican Republic). She had previously
completed the general sewing and upholstery classes.
Perla’s father is an upholsterer, but
they make little profit from his business. She wanted to support her father and
also earn extra money to continue studying by attending the university. With a
small child, she had to interrupt her studies, but recently she obtained a
scholarship to go to college. However, she still needed to find the means to
pay for her transportation and school materials, and that is why she registered
in the purse course.
In the exhibition of projects
completed in the Training Center, where one can buy
clothes, sheets, quilts, purses and even upholstered sofas, Perla was able to
sell a good number of the purses that she created: with this income, she will
be able to pay for her transportation and materials.
Go for it, Perla! You have the energy
to now go to College!
