Construction of the vocational school in Beudet, Haiti is underway, but more funds are needed before it can be completed. Below is a drawing of the school sent to me by Pastor Cadet.
Mom and I are planning to send another donation for construction costs in June. Every person who sends a financial donation from now until the end of May will get their name put in a drawing for this awesome ISU quilt that mom made. It measures just under 4′ x 5′. (I realize this may not excite all of our supporters who are spread out across the US, but hey, it’s a great school…maybe you should consider becoming a Cyclone fan. 🙂 )
Checks can be written out to 500 Dresses and sent to 500 Dresses c/o Jan Nelson, 680 1st St. NE, Britt, IA 50423.
Vocational Sewing School
Kim, Has the pastor sent any current photos of the construction progress? Thanks for all you do!
The most recent photos I have are of the digging of the footings and of some of the construction supplies that have been purchased. I just sent Pastor Cadet an email to see if he can get me some updated photos of where they are at in the construction process right now. Originally he had planned to just build a very simple building to house the sewing school, but he expanded his plans (as seen in the photo) so they will have space for church meetings and possibly other (non-sewing) vocational classes.
