Eliza from Global Volunteer Foundation returned from South Africa in September after handing out skirts and shorts to many children in need from the Kliptown Youth Program. The skirts and shorts proved very successful with modified simpler patterns which made them easy to cut and required very little sewing after a quick whiz on the overlocker. The skirts covered a wide range of sizes as older girls were happy to wear them as mini skirts. You can check out more about the Kliptown Youth Program and the amazing work being done there by following this link. They have also been making a documentary about their gumboot dancers which you can watch the trailer for. Amazing stuff! http://www.kliptownyouthprogram.org.za/
