Not only are these women taught how to sew and hem and stitch clothing, they are also trained in fashion design. So a portion of time is spent creating new styles, combining new colors, and designing new clothing lines for the Learn to Earn facility to create.
You can join our Education project and be a part of this continued training and encourage the creativity of these women.
Grab a picture with the band and send it to us- we love seeing pictures of our members with our artists. We’ll add it to theĀ MC Artists + You facebook album!
Agreed. Baked goods are absolutely delicious and at our Learn to Earn facility, women and men are given the correct training and techniques to make a variety of yummy treats.
Your support of our Education project allows this work to continue and gives these African men and women the opportunity to make an honest living for their families.
In June, Matt Komatsu supported Mocha Club at the Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, MN. As a marathon runner, averaging a race a month, Matt decided that as he raced, he would raise money for our Clean Water project. Matt’s wife Jenn went on a Mocha Club trip and when she came home and told him about the trip, he couldn’t stop thinking about how to help.
Matt is being creative and figuring out ways to support a cause that he cares about- clean water wells. He is finding ways to raise money and awareness through his blog and racing.
Matt ran the marathon in 2:48:08 and finished 67th overall, all the while raising money and awareness for our clean water project.
We love when our members take what they love, what they are passionate about, and combine that with raising support for Africa.
