Fabric donation

Geoff Mann of YAS Australia Pty Ltd, a fabric importer and wholesaler, recently gave us ten pallets of beautiful fabric. The fabric is polyester/rayon school uniform fabric, which can be used for many projects, such as dresses, blouses, uniforms, kids’ clothing, cushions, and soft furnishing.

We have some 700 rolls, each 1.5m wide x 50m. We plan to distribute this to our sewing rooms overseas, and we recently started with a shipment of 120 rolls to our sewing projects in East Timor. However, shipping to third-world countries is always a challenge, and therefore, if anyone has any information on containers being packed with aid products going to any of the following countries, please let me know?  Goma in Congo DRC, Uganda, Nepal, Cambodia, Fiji, Kiribati.

We have also distributed some rolls to three Rotary sewing groups in Australia that make children’s clothing and send them to Africa . Also, please contact me if any other aid organisation could use some of this fabric. We just want to be used in the best possible way to help those in need.

A big thanks to Geoff for this.
