The Gift That Keeps on Giving

I just received an Email from a friend inviting me to a Bead For Life Party. Anyone ever heard of this? Basically Bead For Life is an organization that helps eradicate extreme poverty by selling beautiful jewelry that Ugandan women make from recycled papers. On their website they say, "The beads thus become income, food, medicine, school fees -- and hope. It is a small miracle that enriches us all."
My friend's Bead for Life Party will be on December 6th...just in time for Christmas. How wonderful to buy a pretty little gift for a loved one, all the while helping a complete stranger buy food and medicine.
To find out how you can help, or to host your own Bead For Life Party, please visit their website.
