Description
This necklace has been made form recycled magazines and is a process that takes up to seven days to complete. The paper beads are made by rolling long strips of thinly cut paper, that are glued together and then varnished to complete the bead. Once the beads are made, they are varnished and put aside to dry. Each necklace takes seven days to complete.
Women’s Empowerment
All our jewellery is made by the KCC Women’s Group. The group meets weekly and has three main objectives:
Income Generation
Empowering women with business and jewellery making skills.
Feeding Programme Support
Donating 15% of each sale to the school feeding programme.
Sustainability
Investing in opportunities that increase the sustainability of the group and the individuals within it.
Each jewellery sale is divided three ways:
65% Goes directly to the woman who has made the piece of jewellery.
20% Is put aside for sustainability projects.
15% Is donated to the KCC pre-school feeding programme.
