Thanks to all of you who helped or shopped at our yardsale. We raised over $1100! So far all of our fundraising efforts have raised over $10,000 but with two children, the total expenses will be between $35,000 - $40,000 so we still have much more to raise. We appreciate your continued support.
We have been selling the Ugandan beads for a while now but now we have a few lovely new additions. We have a limited number of beads in solid red in commeration of the Red Dirt Road that is heavily traveled in Uganda. These beads are identical to the traditional colored beads but they are completely red. They are beautiful and a bit more dressy - they'd go great with a business suit or dress.
In addition, we also have Ugandan Bead Earrings. These are colorful hoop earrings and they're incredibly light weight and match everything. They are a perfect match with the necklaces.
We are also taking orders for customized Africa shirts. We have a variety of material/patterns for you to pick from and you can choose your shirt size and color, short or long-sleeve, scoop or vneck style. Sizes range from 3-6 months to 3XL. Please email me at v_elaine@yahoo.com if you'd like a shirt and I can email a picture of the various available fabric choices and take down your specifications.
Please see the right blog column for prices on all these items. The best part is if you order 2 or more items, you can take $5 off your total. That means you can have the whole outfit including necklace, earrings, shirt and bracelet cuff for only $60 and all of your money goes towards two wonderful causes, our adoption fund and the people of Uganda in Africa. All of the earrings and necklaces come gift wrapped in a pretty bag with a bow and a tag that tells how they are made and the Ugandan story. These make perfect gifts!
Here are a few pictures of some of the shirts we've done thus far.
