Sibahle: South African Handmade Goods On Sale

By: Brook Buesking

Back in November I brought to you Shamika Lawrence's organization that promotes conscious consumerism through a sustainable income generation project called Sibahle. Shamika's ongoing dedication to the project has brought much exposure and support to her cause at G.A.P.A.


The next event that will bring these crafts, jewlery, knitted and other handmade goods will be May 2nd, 2009. The event will be housed at the Norfolk YWCA on Colley Avenue from 10am-2pm. that will feature handmade South African crafts.

Join us in promoting conscious consumerism and supporting Shamika's ongoing advocacy for G.A.P.A.
