Ugandan Necklaces

147 Million Orphans is honored to share the story of our sisters in Uganda who hand make these necklaces from recycled paper.  They roll the beads by hand, dip them in varnish, and thread them onto the string.  Prior to learning how to make these beads, most of the women "picked trash" or turned to prostitution to provide for their children.  

By purchasing these necklaces, you help a mother earn make a sustainable income to provide for her family. We are also proud to donate to Amazima Ministries' feeding program from the profits of these necklaces.  The feeding program, run by Katie Davis, provides food to children and their families in the same area of Uganda.  It is a beautiful, full circle story of the body of Christ.
