Christmas shoppers will find unique, handcrafted beaded jewelry for the women on their gift list at BeadedHope.com, a Cincinnati-based company that unveiled its holiday jewelry collection online today.<\/p>\n
The beadwork–which ranges from traditional African accessories to fashionable metallic jewelry was created by artists in Mamelodi, South Africa, who are impacted by HIV\/AIDS.
\nThese women, of whom 75% are single heads of households, are impacted by HIV\/AIDS in one way or another in their daily lives. Some have HIV, some have children with HIV, but all see the effect of the disease every day. Beaded Hope employs the women, providing food, medication and hope.<\/p>\n
“By wearing a beautiful necklace or giving a unique, one of a kind headband as a gift, you can look good and do good,” said Jennifer Davis, Executive Director of Beaded Hope says. “A $30 purchase provides a woman with a day’s wages, which she can use to buy food and HIV medications for herself and her family.”<\/p>\n
Some jewelry selections include: bracelets, ranging from $24 to $32; necklaces from $40 to $100; woven bracelets for $25; and earrings from $12 to $20.<\/p>\n
“Beaded Hope products are great gifts for teachers, girlfriends, play groups, book clubs, Bible studies and more,” Davis added. “Buy one and you not only give a gift to a friend, but you also are giving the gift of hope to women in South Africa.”<\/p>\n
Beaded Hope, which launched in 2006, employs female artists in South Africa who are impacted by HIV\/AIDS and sells their beadwork online. In addition to providing jobs and self-esteem to these women, Beaded Hope also donates a portion of its proceeds to the Bophelong Hospice, an AIDS hospice in their community of Mamelodi.<\/p>\n
The unique beaded jewelry gifts can be found at the website. Additionally, a monthly email subscription based update (with special offers) is also available by going to BeadedHope.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
