Made by "Happiness" in Tanzania. This is not just a play on words. "Happiness" is the name of the woman that creates many of the adorable aprons that Pockets of Dreams sells. Sometimes I wonder why they call her "Happiness". Let me tell you her story and you can decide for yourself.
Happiness lives in Tanzania and has two children of her own. Four years ago she took in two more children, both orphan girls, and raises them as her own. She has opened her home and shares it with a Kids Club leader. Kid's Club is a safe place where street kids, orphans, and neighborhood children can come for a time of singing, playing fun games, Bible lessons, and some food.
If this doesn't keep her busy enough, Happiness is the Director of the Kamala Center, also located in Tanzania. Although her husband left her some time ago due to her faith commitment as a Christian, Happiness is described as a busy woman with a heart of gold. For me, her picture is worth a thousand words and shows a beautiful woman committed to making a better life for herself and her community. I have a feeling she really does make people happier just by being around her.
The aprons, in both adult and child sizes, made by Happiness and the other seamstresses are delightful, unique, whimsical and of high quality. Pockets of Dreams is delighted to be a dedicated support to Hope of the Nations in Tanzania. Visit our website today and purchase a beautiful apron (Coming Soon!) for yourself or someone you love. Just wearing it will make you happy!
