Help African Women With Your Shopping!

Isn't it fun for shoppers to find a new store to explore? And isn't it even more fun to know that when you purchase a gift from that store you are actually making a difference in this world? HELP has just released their web store www.biggerthanbeads.com for just that experience! Bigger Than Beads features the Wamama artisans of Masese, an impoverished village just near the source of the Nile River in East Africa. Through the sale of this lovely jewelry you will be helping women provide for their families and help fund the school started for children unable to attend school due to their extreme poverty. Not only that but you will find this jewelry is amazingly beautiful. It is not only made from recycled paper but it is crafted with an eye for loveliness.
Give a gift that gives twice! Help us help women and children that are hungry and without hope if their beads don't sell.
Most of all, have fun shopping!
