spring fashion for a cause.

how much do you love these adorable wrap sandals?  pretty awesome, yeah?  well, without further ado i would like to introduce to you Sseko Designs!  the company was created to help bright young women of Uganda pay for continuing their education.  in an impoverished and male dominated society, many of these young women struggle to find fair work during this time.  Sseko hires these women for a nine month period to live and work together, while earning money that will go directly towards their university education.

there are so many great strap colors to choose from, as well as a ton of different ways to tie them up!  my personal faves have to be Starboard, Teal and Red.

adorable? check.
less than $50? check.  
for a wonderful cause? check.

"every sandal has a story.  this story has only just begun, but with your help, it will be a story of hope, success and change." 

    yours truly-
