Giveaway: Light Gives Heat



I am super excited to share a beautiful bracelet giveaway
with you today from Light Gives Heat!

One lucky winner will receive the Anchored Red Bracelet. The bracelet is made by the Suubi women in Uganda with 100% unique handcrafted beads made from recycled paper. These beads are gorgeous! The bracelet is made with memory wire and can wrap around the wrist 4 times leaving so much room for versatility!

This is one bracelet I seriously love.




Light Gives Heat is a non-profit organization that fuses fashion with hope. They work to provide consistent and sustainable incomes for a bit over 100 women in Jinja, Uganda through the making of the Suubi® Jewelry line and the Epoh™ handbag line, both of which are produced using up-cycled materials.

LGH MISSION

Empowering Africans through the encouragement of economic sustainability and creative endeavors. Motivating people in the west to "be the change they want to see in the world."

LGH VISION

To See Africa rebuilt and renewed from the inside out and to see people in the West living with Hope!

    What a wonderful organization! It is so refreshing to see people stepping up and out of their comfort zone in order to help others in a real, tangible way. LGH says it perfectly...'Simply go and meet real needs'. Thank you for sharing!
