"As an artist and an entrepreneur myself, I am always looking for inspiring projects related to these topics. When I saw Joska’s fabrics and designs, I immediately fell in love and knew I wanted to support her business. I am so happy to be a part of her story, receive updates about her successes, and to support her in providing an income for her family."
– Piera Mattioli, Entrepreneur & Artist
"I felt so happy receiving the microloan to start my business as a tailor. I am now able to support my family and give back to my community by providing school clothing for children. This year, I was able to employ three other refugee women in my business which helps them to be self-reliant and feel empowered. Sewing is what we love and where our passion lies."
