By purchasing one of our animals you support:
❥ A woman in a remote, dry rural part of south-east Kenya where there are very few ways to make a living. Her sowing means a vital income for her (and for all the 1500 women in the women groups that Hadithi now supports). The money goes a long way, especially in the dry season, when she as a farmer often fails to produce enough harvest to even meet her families basic needs. The sowing workshop provides her with some financial stability, money to pay school fees and buy food.
❥ The conservation of a threatened forest and it's wildlife. When harvests fail, people turn to other ways to provide an income for the family. It is not uncommon in Tsavo that people turn to cutting trees to turn them into charcoal, or poaching wildlife in the area. An income for crafts is the alternative we can offer.
When you order our Creative Design, you order baskets per colourgroup and size, and allow each basket to different, with its own unique pattern and design. With our creative designs we promote the creative freedom for our artisans and celebrate their unique artistry!
