ORGANIZATION: The Sewing Labs

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

Become a mentor (ally) for the students in the Sewing Salon Workforce Training program.

The Sewing Labs has 12 opportunities for volunteer mentors or allies to come alongside our students over a catered meal once a month at The Sewing Labs (thanks to a generous benefactor)
Won’t you please volunteer to offer your guidance, advice, and support?

We want our students to feel safe, loved, and protected, "Encompassed" all in one.
EnCompass also has at its root the word "compass", a search for direction-an openness to embrace dreams and goals, and our hope that our students are ready to find a new path, arm in arm, with their mentors.

EnCompass is a mentoring program. The goal is to form a personal connection with the student-to plant the seeds of healthy relationships while giving them emotional and social support.

If you want to go FAST go alone. If you want to go FAR go together. ~ African Proverb ~
