Today I would like to tell you a fitting story.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Last year, our wonderful principal, Dorte Budolfsen, founded a \u201csewing group\u201d. The initial aim was to produce school uniforms cheaply and in large numbers. But, as is so often the case, many more good things were created than just uniforms. Young people learned how to sew. \u00a0Some became enthusiastic about textile design. This is how development succeeds: with joy and skills. And some capital, here in the form of a sewing machine.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"549\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kids-of-africa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/uniform_bags.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9453\" style=\"width:549px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kids-of-africa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/uniform_bags.png 549w, https:\/\/www.kids-of-africa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/uniform_bags-300x219.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 549px) 100vw, 549px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><em><em>Sarah, a single mother of five, was one of the young participants.
