Dresses for little Gambian girls
Dress a Girl Around the World is an organisation
which believes that every girl in the world deserves to own at
least one dress. Individuals and sewing groups in many countries
make these dresses for girls in poor countries, and one of these
groups is based in Horsham. Esther Clark and
her friends produced 170 little dresses, which Esther and her
husband took to The Gambia during Pageant's visit in February
2014. You can read about this in the
West Sussex County Times, and in the
May edition of 'etc' magazine, pages 128-129. We're
not too sure how long this second link will be available, so if
it doesn't work, you can
look at the entire May edition, and scan through to
these pages.
