An Entire Family Depends on Her
Noncedo Lutshetu came to Evangeline after hearing through the village grapevine about the sewing and computer program that we teach to the women. She completed the program in December 2009 and was given a sewing machine that is given to all graduates of the class. As a result she is able to support a family of nine-her parents, siblings and some extended family members, none of whom have jobs-on a small government grant and what she earns from making bags and various items that she can sell. With a ninth grade education and a HIV positive diagnosis, she felt coming to Evangeline and learning a trade was a chance to help herself and her family. She relishes reading the Bible we gave her and now attends church every Sunday. "You are the most wonderful thing that has happened to poor people in Masiphumelele. your help and support is a blessing," were here words when she graduated our class
