Batiking & Sewing Center (Cape Coast)
Cecilia Dontwi grew up in Cape Coast and joined Global Mamas in 2007. After finishing school in 2000, she worked as a sales girl but the pay was not steady, so in 2007 her Global Mamas friend Mavis introduced her to the program. Originally she shared a small space with her friend in order to help her fill orders, and now has saved enough money to rent her own store. As a result of working with Global Mamas, Cecilia has improved her batiking quality, been able to replace a broken door, learned basic computer and bookkeeping skills, and increased her income by 100 percent.
