We are doing fine at the centre so far. Today, mathew came in the morning accompanied by a colleague called Nelly. They both work at the programme on Male circumcission as a means of preventing Hiv/ Aids infection. Had mentioned earlier that he was willing to be coming in once a week and will support us in sales and marketing. They brought sketches of skirts that we had discussed with them earlier. They had talked about the kind of clothing that white people prefer. 

Its quite different from ours. Mathew updated us on the blog in the internet , where he has been sending news about shinners centre. He had interviewed one of the youths on jewellery and posted some pictures too. In 2 weeks he says they have managed to raise about 700 dollars. He had talked to a musician in America who agreed that every CD bought online, some money would be coming to shinners. People are writing inquiring about shinners and he will give them more information next week. He intends to use the money collected in promotion of the clothing , pottery and the jewellery. He hopes to open a small shop for us to sell our items. This will let people know about us.He said he was still working on the computers and would bring them.
