Yates Community Center needs our help!
The Yates Community Center mission is to teach refugees, immigrants, and other community members skills that will help them be successful in the Omaha Community.
Yates Community Centers offers:
Sewing Classes: Students learn to make bags, mittens, hats and more!
Sewing Lab: Bring your own materials and use the machines!
The center can always use used sewing machines in good working condition, not for our classroom but for the avid passionate seamstress in the making! The enter will give the machine to a promising student that does not have the resources to buy a machine of their own. This allows them to practice and experiment at ome. Donations of sewing machines, fabric and notions are always welcomed and put to good by our refugees sewing students.
