Rosie May’s Legacy

Rosie May’s mantra at 10 years of age was ‘girl power’. How very fitting her living legacy is and how very proud she must be.

As we grow from our roots of a family charity into an international children’s charity, we will never forget Rosie May. She is and always will be our complete inspiration.

Think Pink Workshop

🧵 Young entrepreneurs in the making, thanks to Dorothy’s Sewing Room 💕

Some gifts are about so much more than what they provide. They carry a legacy, a story and the love of someone who wanted to make a difference.

Dorothy, Chair of SI Weybridge & District, was a regular visitor to Project Hope and a much loved supporter of the Rosie May Foundation. Her kindness and commitment to helping others left a lasting impression.

Today, her legacy continues through Dorothy’s Sewing Room. 🪡💗

For young women at Project Hope, a sewing machine can mean so much more than learning to sew. It can be the first step towards earning their own income, supporting their families and building a future where they can become financially independent.

Through a one year tailoring programme, these young women are learning valuable skills that can open the door to new opportunities. And, thanks to our partnership with Ilse Van Roy-Mona & Louise, those who complete their training can access a microloan to purchase a sewing machine and start their own home based business.

But it doesn’t stop there.

They can also access free English lessons and business skills training, helping them develop the confidence and knowledge they need to turn their new skills into a sustainable income.

Imagine learning a skill, receiving your very own sewing machine and knowing that you now have the opportunity to build something of your own. ❤️

That is the power of giving someone skills, opportunity and hope.

And that is why Dorothy’s legacy means so much.

Her generosity continues to create opportunities for young women who are taking their first steps towards independence and a brighter future.

Thank you to everyone who helps us make these life changing opportunities possible. 💗

Rosie May Foundation, More Than A Charity
