Day 2

http://www.awavamarket.com/about-awava

Today I wanted to focus more globally on my act of love. While hanging with Skyler, I was told about a company that helped Ugandan women become more empowered. These women are taught a craft and given the opportunity to sell what they make online. While looking at the website, I found a dress. I decided that I would buy the dress to help the company. I love that the company helps women in a historically conflicted area provide for themselves and their families. Hopefully, by empowering the people, the communities will be rebuilt and peace will come. Furthermore, the mission of the ladies that started the organization is the same as mine: to make the world a better place. Above is a link to the website. They have some beautifully hand crafted items and the money that you are giving helps people help themselves.
