Laura
Laura lived on the street but is off the streets now, working hard for a new life for herself and her four kids. She is the primary breadwinner for her family and supports her children and her aging mother. She has never learned to read and write, but she is clever, funny, innovative, and a hard worker. She is excited about MePower and has been practicing on the fabrics and learning to sew the pads. She’s looking forward to selling them and making additional income for her family. The women are required after they sell their first batch of supplies to pay a small amount back to MePower to support additional women to participate and teach them to manage expenses.
