Bead for Life Party

Join us in helping break the cycle of poverty in Uganda.

Our members are impoverished, hardworking and intelligent women with a strong desire to improve their lives. Women from Kampala and Iganga Uganda make beautiful handcrafted paper beads from recycled paper and turn them into necklaces, bracelets and earrings.  While the farmers in Otuke collect the finest quality shea nuts which they sell to BeadforLife.  The shea nuts get pressed into Shea Butter Soap and Peppermint Lip Balm. Visit beadforlife.org for more information.
