Case Study Vicky Nassolo's Story Vicky Nassolo is a recent beneficiary of the tailoring training. Before she got involved in the project, she was unemployed and had no skills, having dropped out of school to raise her child. A young single parent, Vicky struggled with life until she was discovered by Sarah Nabiteete (SPAU group leader) and recommended for the project. Vicky has learnt a skill and is now awaiting a sewing machine of her own, with which she can become self-employed. In the meantime, she is working with the SPAU tailoring group in Kaliro to complete a local school order for boys’ uniforms.
