Thank you for the update and the work that you are doing. I am a teacher and director of a non profit. We just started a clothing design project for youth. Our organization's projects have a social justice, and cultural education emphasis. I would like to collaborate with Harrison and send designs my students and mentors have made, so that they can then be blended with his groups traditional textile and design detail. We can then purchase the finished designs at a fair price and sell them here. Please let me know how I can send the samples. Thank you for your work.

Hello jessy and leba,thanks for your message from students of st. Michaels university high school we were eagerly awaiting their response unfortunately it's in the negative. However we are encouraged they had the time to look at our designs and are hoping sol collective will come through with designs we can work with. We are also open to the possibility of a fashion designer spending time with us to perfect our design work and overall finishing. Thanks for your efforts in this demanding work. God Bless (Be Smart Members)
