Over $89.9 million sent to artisans so far!
Crafted by hand, this luxurious jewelry box displays the natural hues of ebony wood. Ghanaian artisan Ali Mohammed designs the box, decorated with the hand-carved image of Sankofa, the Adinkra symbol that signifies the importance of learning from the past. The box opens to a single-compartment interior lined in printed cotton after the style of kente cloth.
Ali financially supports the education of two of his own children and two others in primary school.
Starting off with very humble earnings, Ali has worked hard to grow his workshop and better his livelihood and that of his family.
Ali currently supports four children who are all under the age of ten.
"I was good at learning through watching my brother when he was carving, and then I would try my hand and I would ask for assistance when needed."
