Empowering Hope in Samoa: Sewing Machine Donation

✂️Supporting Hope Through Stitching ✂️

The Rotary Club of Bishopdale Burnside International Committee is proud to announce the donation of 12 sewing machines to the Campus of Hope in Apia, Samoa, a safe haven for survivors supported by the Samoa Victim Support Group.

Building Skills and Confidence

These sewing machines will provide residents with opportunities to learn practical skills, explore creative expression, and gain pathways to independence. Each stitch represents resilience, empowerment, and the chance to rebuild lives with dignity.

Community Partnerships

This initiative would not have been possible without the generosity of our partners:

• Spotlight Christchurch – for their invaluable support.
• Brother New Zealand Ltd – with special thanks for donating two of the machines.

Your contributions are helping stitch together brighter futures for those who need it most.
