African Makeup Bag, benefitting Mountain Gorilla Conservation

Description

These quilted makeup bags are handmade by the sewing center in Uganda, which is created by SAFE Worldwide and its partner MUSAA.

About the sewing center:

Most girls never complete secondary school, often having to drop out to work in the fields until they wed early and start their own families. They live in difficult conditions with no electricity or way to get out of the cycle of poverty. Our trainees receive training certificates to pursue careers that provide financial stability and independence. More importantly, it will allow them to provide health care for their children, keep them in school and allow for greater financial freedom. This prevents poaching of the forest wildlife and helps protect the critically endangered mountain gorillas in the Mgahinga National Park.

100% of the profits support the anti-poaching efforts of SAFE Worldwide.
