Cool bags

Today I discovered the website where you can order a really cool bag made by women in Swaziland. I ordered two of the messenger bag style last year from an organization in the U.S. that was selling them... but here you can order directly from Timbali Crafts.

From the website:

Timbali Crafts was started in 2006 to help generate an income for the 45+ women who work as volunteer cooks at the eight feeding centers in the rural area of Engculwini. Crafts sales allow the women to earn an income for their families, and also continue on with their volunteer work, which is vital to their community.

Timbali Crafts also seeks to reach out to the spiritual needs of the women, through regular Bible studies, retreats and special events.

As Timbali Crafts continues to grow, even more women in Swaziland will be able to become involved in this income generating opportunity, and further outreach to underprivileged women will be funded.

I like this new sling style a lot!
