Who She Is<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In 2005, Rachel O\u2019Neill, of Rockwood, Michigan, was working full-time as an executive assistant for an engineering firm. While active in her church, she\u2019d never done any global volunteering. But after a safari in Africa for her fiftieth birthday, followed by a mission trip<\/a> to Malawi, \u201cI felt God calling me to do something more.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was struck by the backbreaking labor done by girls to support their families. \u201cI wanted a way to honor them,\u201d she says. Her idea? Persuading a few women at her church to make 1,000 simple dresses<\/a> from pillowcases, requiring no sewing, to be donated to girls in Malawi.<\/p>\n

What She Does<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Rachel and her friends met their goal that first year. As word spread, donations poured in. \u201cDresses started coming every day from all over the country!\u201d Rachel says. In 2008, with zero prior experience, she started a nonprofit called Little Dresses for Africa, with a mission of getting simple homemade dresses to girls (and pants to boys) in impoverished communities.<\/p>\n

To date, more than 10 million dresses have been donated to children in 97 countries, including the United States, though Africa remains a focus. Volunteers make 100 percent of the clothing, as well as manage almost all the logistics of shipping clothes from Rockwood and collection points in nine other countries.<\/p>\n

Why She Does It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Rachel had hoped the dresses would boost girls\u2019 self-esteem. She soon learned they were helping in ways she could never have imagined. For example, they offer protection from human traffickers and sexual assault. \u201cAttackers assume girls in nice clothing are being watched over,\u201d she says. \u201cAnd so many children still go without clothes. We\u2019re answering a critical need. We\u2019re not just sending dresses\u2014we\u2019re sending hope<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

How She Does It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The nonprofit runs a distribution center in Malawi and works directly with community leaders there to distribute donated dresses and pants and washable menstrual pads, which have proven key to keeping adolescent girls in school. In other countries, Little Dresses networks with established charities, such as Samaritan\u2019s Purse. Rachel works with 30 to 40 volunteers<\/a> in Rockwood to sort and box clothing for shipments, sending thousands every week. \u201cWhen I started, I didn\u2019t know what a shipping container even was, but I\u2019ve learned on the job,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

How You Can Do It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cNearly half of Malawi\u2019s population is under age 14,\u201d Rachel says. \u201cWe are nowhere close to meeting need.\u201d For dress patterns and shipping information, go to littledressesforafrica.org\/printables<\/strong><\/a>. Rachel emphasizes that opportunities exist for people who sew and those who don\u2019t. \u201cWe only ask people to use high-quality, colorful material,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you wouldn\u2019t give it to your child or grandchild, we don\u2019t want it for our children.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also asks for money to cover shipping costs, estimated at $2 a dress. Generous donations have allowed Little Dresses to address other needs, including building more than 85 wells and two primary schools. \u201cI couldn\u2019t have done any of this on my own,\u201d Rachel says. \u201cBut when you step out in faith<\/a>, God works miracles.\u201d<\/p>\n
