BeadforLife partners with over 200 women in Uganda, providing opportunities for them to lift their families out of poverty through the creation of beaded jewelry. The beads are handmade by rolling colorful recycled paper. The love and hope of the beader is present in each bead. Once strung together, they become beautiful necklaces and bracelets.
The money women earn from the sale of beads goes directly into feeding their families, buying medicine, paying for school fees, and perhaps saving to start small businesses. All profits from the sale of the beads are invested in projects that fight extreme poverty including health education, housing, and sustainable livelihood. BeadforLife offers people opportunities and jobs, rather than handouts. www.beadforlife.org
