Mrs Beautrice Olufolajimi, aged 58, is a housewife living in Ipaja. Beautrice started attending the daily sewing classes at Ipaja Community Link in September 2008 after she heard about the skills acquisition programme through Family Ark Mission: Agency for the Aged. Beautrice says, "I am a pensioner but because my pension money is always late, I came to this programme to learn new skills to set up my own shop to try to make ends meet." During the five month programme, Beautrice has learnt new skills such as dress-cutting and sewing and can now sew different types of clothes, including various types of skirts and blouses. Beautrice is a widow and therefore hopes that, by establishing her own business, she will be able to provide for her family as well as having something else to occupy her time. Beautrice will graduate from the programme on 27 February 2008.
