Meet this week's #MainerMonday feature: Adele Masengo Ngoy, the President and Founder of Women United Around the World and the founder of two Maine based fashion design businesses.⠀ When Ngoy came to Portland as a refugee and single mother in 2000, she couldn’t speak English. “It was very challenging until I could do my art and my work.” Ngoy worked to support other immigrant women who lacked the skills to find the well-paying jobs that are necessary to building new lives in Maine. The Women United Around the World organization promotes the leadership development of other female immigrants. ⠀ Tap on the link in bio to read more about Ngoy. ⠀ ⠀ Comment below if you know of someone who we should feature on #MainerMonday. ⠀ ⠀ —⠀ ⠀ #inspirationalmainers #themainemag #maineart #maineartists #mainelife
