Rosetti will use the funds she receives from her needlework to provide education for her children and adopted orphans; medical support for herself and her family; seeds or fertilizer for her crops; and maintenance and repairs to her home.  She meets weekly with her fellow needleworkers.  The community they have developed through Threads of Blessing encourages each of them and has significantly raised their self-confidence.
