As the tallest young woman in her village, her height and beauty led her to dream of becoming an international model. Her dream died when her parents could not afford school fees and, against her wishes, she was married on her 15th birthday to a violent man of her father’s age. After years of abuse she ran away. “I thought of ending my life but I could not leave my six children During that darkest time I was welcomed into Kids First and my life has never been the same”.
Allen was trained by KFU women in craft making and then selected for vocational training in tailoring. “Getting skills in tailoring completed the puzzle of my lost dream I had as a kid. I now not only make crafts but I also design and make garments which I model. Life can never be better than this.” With her new income she is able to feed her children, pay school fees, and even save a little. I am able to encourage other women in my community….I want them to know it is never too late for God to fix their problems.”
KFU-MI Vocational training programs to date has brought hope to 10 seamstresses, 5 culinary women, 2 cosmetologists, and 2 men in auto mechanics.
