ANN FASHIONS
______________________
This is the not-for-profit website for Ann
who visits Myanmar several times a year. On her travels, Ann
has found much poverty and has developed small projects to
help local women to help themselves.
The women are excellent at sewing, including
embroidery, and Ann suggests items that she knows will sell
in Malaysia (her second home) and Australia at little local
markets and bazaars.
When Ann
arrives in Myanmar she goes with the seamstresses to the
market. They choose the fabric and she pays. Ann also gives
the women whatever they ask for their work. That way, as she
says, if my plane crashes they have been paid!
She does not take any profit for herself, but
takes it back to the seamstresses in Myanmar on her next
visit.
