This week Nelson’s Me to We club is selling rafiki bracelets at lunch hour for $10 and $15.
Selling beaded rafiki bracelets helps a Kenyan artisan create a better future for herself and her family. Every bracelet she makes helps her earn a living, send her children to school and share the power of her skills and traditions with the world.
Me to We club members will be taking orders this week and the bracelets will arrive in December in time for Christmas!
They make wonderful gifts!!
CLICK on each picture above for a closer look and the price of each bracelet.
Thank you so much for your support of our fundraising efforts!
