Tina has two children with no support from their father. She has tried different ways to support her family - once with "fixing cookies for sale" and then with enrolling in a training program in tailoring. Unfortunately this program "collapsed" after two months.
Thus when Tina heard about the YMCA program she was skeptical. But she enrolled and was pleasantly surprised. She learned a lot about tailoring, business management and personal life skills in the one year YMCA program.
And being Tina, she made and sold clothes during the training. Upon graduation she expanded her own business. Now she has plans for her own shop.
