It was an honor to speak with Sister Rosemary Nyirumbe of Uganda, recipient of several global awards for humanitarianism. While in Huntsville a few days ago, Sister Rosemary shared the mission of a nonprofit she founded, Sewing Hope.
Sewing Hope: "Joseph Kony and the LRA (Lords Resistance Army) caused thousands to lose their lives and many more to suffer homelessness and a loss of hope. These woman and children want sustainable, long-term initiatives to become empowered to earn their own living and restore their dignity. Sewing Hope distributes the handbags and goods made by the young women of Uganda and South Sudan, giving them jobs, hope and a chance to live meaningful lives with dignity." Also, thank you to our other special guest pictured, Ms. Tonya Stafford, for traveling from Texas to speak to guests about human trafficking. These ladies are a blessing. Thank you.
