The Suubi Project was launched in 2007, while it's founders, Dave & Morgan Hansow were living in Jinja, Uganda for the adoption of their daughter. At the orphanage, they met Anaso Grace and Adong Santa selling recycled paper-beaded necklaces. And after they visited the original 60+ women who met each Sunday to bead together under a jackfruit tree in the village of Walukuba, Suubi was birthed- merely a response to a talent and a need.
In addition to purchasing their jewelry each week (and tripling their usual profit) volunteers also run weekly Literacy and English classes for the women of Suubi and simply spend time with them. The majority of the 100 women are Acholi widows who have been displaced from Northern Uganda because of the over 20-year-long war.
Despite the tragedies they have seen, the hardships they face, and the unpredictability of life in Africa, these beautiful women have joy on their faces and hope in their hearts.
We are thrilled to be able to introduce to you these beautiful Magazine Bead necklaces, made in Uganda by the women of SUUBI.
