Hannah lives in Hoima, Uganda, in the district of Bunyoro-Kitara. Hoima is northwest of Kampala. Living in a mud hut with a thatched roof, Hannah’s life revolves around caring for her family and crops.
She will use the funds she receives from her needlework to provide education for her children; medical support for herself and her family; seeds or fertilizer for her crops; repairs to her home, or even begin to build a new one; and provide for any orphans for whom she cares as a result of HIV AIDS or other illnesses.
Hannah meets weekly with her fellow needleworkers. The community they have built through Threads of Blessing encourages each of them and has significantly boosted their self-confidence.
