Let us be Grateful! 
"The more you practice the art of thankfulness,
the more you have to be thankful for." Norman Vincent Peale

"The Sewing Labs is an inclusive and welcoming community..." 
These words are the beginning of our mission statement and we strive to achieve and maintain this community in our thoughts and actions.  We work to create a "human connection" with our students, volunteers, staff and community.  The empowering effect of human connection can be as simple as one person who understands you and believes in you and makes you feel loved for who you are and where you are. At TSL, we work to make this happen an to enable each person to discover the wonder of themselves through the art of sewing and community. 

"teaching the legacy of sewing for employment, entrepreneurship and enrichment"
These words from our mission are the TSL's ways and means to bring success to each individual. Our unique mechanism of teaching sewing, allows collaborations to be built with other businesses, employers, agencies and supporters to extend our community to serve and support the individuals within our program.
We are thankful for each point of contact we have made this year which allows us to extend our reach to serve more individuals.  Your continued support and connection will bring TSL to new heights to better serve more people.

We are GRATEFUL for You!
