The LifeStitches project empowers HIV/AIDS women with children in Arua, Uganda to become financially self sufficient through the sale of beautiful cotton table products which the women stitch in a sewing workshop business. For more information visit www.lifestitches.org.

  • The LifeStitches project directly supports a sewing workshop on the Arua Regional Referral Hospital grounds.
  • These mothers who are not otherwise able to generate income need skills, materials and equipment to become financially self sufficient.
  • The sale of beautiful cotton table products stitched by the women provides income to the individual mothers and their children, which improves their nutrition and contributes to schooling fees.
  • A portion of all income from the table products is used by the Arua *PMTCT Peer Support Group to pay for outreach AIDS prevention education in the remote villages surrounding Arua.
