What they said:

Despite the difficulties we faced and not being able to meet some needs, we are still proud of the achievement and we did make a difference and a positive impact toward our community. We are not giving up and still looking for other ways to support those brave women. Overall this project was an open-minded experience for us, and we are grateful for that.
