Testimonials
I don't know what we would have done without AWCCA. After losing my husband, it was hard to put food on the table for me and my kids. Their 'Nourishing Futures' program kept us going. Then they helped me learn tailoring through 'Building Bridges' and gave me a loan to start my own business. Now I can provide for my family and even hired another woman from the neighborhood.
