Kale Nyabo [kaa:le nia:bo] – translated from Luganda means “Thank you, mom/madam”

Our main goal is to support small communities of underprivileged single mothers from Uganda who are earning their money by designing and manufacturing women accessories from different alternative materials such as seeds, beans, recycled paper and coconut shells.

“I can sell 3 pairs of earrings today, and have food for my kids for the next 5-7 days,
