Jewelery Making

My roommate Caitlin works with HIV+ teen moms based at Marianita de Jesus Maternity Hospital in Guayaquil. She is currently teaching these young women to make and sell jewelery as an additional income for their families.

Here are some pictures of two little girls who came with their moms to Caitlin’s jewelery workshop.

The jewelry is based on a design from México. Our program manager came to Guayaquil to teach us how to make these necklaces and bracelets.
