Each week, Maasai women from four rural villages meet at the Longido District Learning Centre as part of a skills development project. The women are learning how to sew school uniforms including skirts and shirts, as well as simple dresses for children. The women are also learning basic literacy and numeracy skills required to run a small sewing business. Funds will be used to purchase sewing machines for the women upon graduation.
