Now Selling Stars!

Hi everyone,

I am continuing the efforts I started two years ago to support orphan education.  The 6 year old girl I sponsor named Tumaini, (Swahili for Hope), will be starting her second year of boarding school in January 2012.

Her education has been made possible thus far by the INCREDIBLE generosity of friends and family who have purchased the handmade beaded stars I buy from local Masai business women inTanzania.

We still have several years of school to fund for Tumaini as well as a trip this year to see a neurosurgeon in the capital city, Dar es Salaam, so she can receive the proper medical attention for her spina bifida.

This year I have hundreds of stars in different sizes and colors that make beautiful holiday presents.  Please click on "Buy the Stars" at the top of this page to take a look at them and "About Tumaini" to learn the full story about this brave little girl.

Buy a star, empower an orphan, support small business women in Tanzania.  It's a win-win-win.

Peace and Love,
Ashley
