Encourage Your Organization to Join our “Adopt 100
Necklaces” Program.
Each of these choices is a fun, exciting way for you and your

etc. to help the women beaders sell more of their beautiful
beaded jewelry and cloth sling bag products. You can become part

Sponsor
a Child
Please sponsor a child today
and team up with one of the women beaders to help keep her child
in school by paying for the school fees, uniform and supplies
for this child. Annual sponsorship amounts range from $100 to
$800. This represents a huge benefit to the beader’s family
and represents another way to further support the beader’s
efforts as she works at stabilizing her family’s financial
situation through her business. Just click here to sponsor a
child now.
Contribute Money for Our
Programs
Financial contributions are key for us to be able to expand our
program's needs. Currently the need far outweighs the available funds.
Almost all fund-raising and administrative time is donated to
the organization, so your contribution can be used almost
entirely for direct program expenses. We are a 501(c)(3)
organization, so contributions are tax deductible in the U.S. to
the fullest extent of the law.

"A journey can alter the heart forever... When we step into these other places, we may be given a precious gift: a moment or a series of moments that can galvanize and sustain our commitment long after we return home... A learning journey can create genuine connections and help to pull us out of our observer status and into our fully connected humanity."
From book, What Can One Person Do?
Join our "Cause" on FaceBook and MySpace
If you are a Facebook or
