With one Bead


With just one bead, you can change a life. NETwork volunteers make jewelry using beads made by Ugandan women. The women go to trash dumps and get old newspapers and magazines. They cut them into strips and roll them into paper beads. The women seal the beads and send them to America where volunteers string the beads to make jewelry.



The jewelry made by our volunteers is sold to purchased bednets for Ugandan children.



We can do a lot with a single bead like save a life.
