In 2008 a woman named Rachel Alexader O’Neill started a sewing project using pillow cases for dresses and calling it “Little Dresses for Africa”. (www.littledressesforafrica.org)
In 2011 an Altar and Rosary Society of St. Patrick’s Church in Maytown, Illinois, started sewing little dresses for a Lenten project and is still sewing today.
In 2017, Faith United Methodist Church in Downers Grove, Illinois, launched their mission by the grace of God and the dedication of the women willing to serve.
In 2019, we became aware of Faith UMC’s dedication. So we joined their project by praying and sewing. And 2020, we started to make our own dresses.
