The multicolored beads are uniquely created using recycled magazine pages.<br /><br />95% of the proceeds go directly to the widows and to the start up of a Kid’s Club and orphanage to serve as a safe haven for the vulnerable children of Nyamitanga Village. Thanks to the generosity of Dana Walters and <a href="http://www.redssb.com/">Red’s Coffee Shop</a> in allowing us to display and sell the necklaces at no charge; the extra funds will go a long way in sustaining the widows’ small business venture. <br /><br />Please email <a href="mailto: necklacesforhope@gmail.com">necklacesforhope@gmail.com</a> or visit <a href="http://www.redssb.com/">Red's in the Santa Barbara Funk Zone</a> if you are interested in more information.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4740578348364469458-5770197212966518675?l=necklacesforhope.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>clarabellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01265698764956105879noreply@blogger.com0
