Norah Ester lives in a village called Goli in the district of Nebbi in northwest Uganda. Nebbi borders Lake Albert to the south, the River Nile to the east, and the Congo to the we st. Living in a mud hut with a thatched roof, her life revolves around caring for her family and crops. She meets weekly with her fellow needleworkers. The community they have developed through Threads of Blessing encourages each of them and has significantly raised their self-confidence. She will use the funds she receives from her needlework to provide education for her children, medical support for herself and her family, seeds or fertilizer for her crops, repairs to her home, or even begin to build a new one, and provide for any orphans for whom she cares as a result of poverty, HIV-AIDS or other illnesses.
