BeadForLife.org - Eradicating Poverty One Bead at a Time
Hi there! all you fellow beaders. I want to request you all to look up the website www.beadforlife.org. It's a website showcasing the turnaround that beading has created for a group of Ugandan women who had no means of livelihood and had to choose between food and aspirin on any given day.
Then they started to make these beads made from recycled paper from magazines.
You can "meet" some of the beaders and read their stories.
Please take a few moments and see if you can showcase some of their products in your next event or home party. All the directions and help with hosting a BeadForLife BeadParty is available through their website.
I am hosting a party on December 19th and am hoping to raise some money for the women and children who have been orphaned by HIV and hunger. It's helping me to focus on whatever little bit I can do, instead of focusing on shows that are unsuccessful and blaming it on the economy that we are all experiencing.
So please do something for these women and children and see your passion change someone's life.
Stay tuned for the pictures from my party soon!
Do check out Bead for Life and see that nothing is impossible!
