Helping the Women of Rwanda

There is an organization called Sisters of Rwanda which helps young women, many of whom where prostitutes, and often not by choice, to become financially independent. “KEZA” which means “beautiful” in the native language of Kinyarwanda, is a small business, through the group, which helps the former prostitute create and sell beautiful jewelry in the form of beadwork made from old calendars, paper scraps, poster, etc.
You will be amazed at the creations. Support the women buy purchasing a beautiful piece of their work. Such lovely necklaces. You will look good and feel good about helping once hopeless women feel empowered and hopeful.
