I am a freshman in Highschool and I started this project of 'Sewing the Dream' while living in Hawai’i when I was 10 years old. We saw a lot of homeless families and children in Hawai'i and I wanted to do something good and also combine my new love of sewing. That's when 'Sewing The Dream' came to life. I now sew colorful and fun accessories as well as useful household gadgets. My goal was to donate my projects to keiki (children) in need. We have since moved to California, but I would like to continue to spread Aloha and hopefully brighten someone's day. For my logo I choose the shaka (which I drew myself), which stands for Hello, Love, and the Aloha spirit. How can you get involved in supporting my charity? It's easy and fun: Buy something from me at the markets I attend. All profits will be used to purchase cloth or notions needed to complete our donations (for instance we sew toiletry pouches and fill them with fun and useful products like creams, chapsticks, nailpolish, brushes, etc.). Profits will also be used to purchase books, which we will donate together with our bookmarks or reading pillows. The books are bought at a local library book sale (in turn benefiting the library as well). We sometimes also donate money to the charities. I hope that you can find something you love for yourself, your family and friends. Mahalo for supporting my charity!
