What a beautiful concept - especially at this time of the year!
At this time of year, we need more of a focus on relationships. Positive relationships. Relationships that strive for the betterment of all of humanity, and each of us has a part that we should play in turn. Spread the word. As I sat here reading over all of the good this organization does, I kept thinking to myself, "what wonderful Christmas gifts these handmade one-of-a-kind beads would make for loved ones", which, in turn, would help these people on the other side of the world. If you can, please, do what you can to support this incredible organization.
The brief introductory excerpt, below, has been obtained from TAPP.org website and explains the beauty and the purpose of this fine organization.

Ubuntu is an African philosophy that is most literally translated "me we" and loosely translated "I am because we are." It tells us that persons are persons only through other persons.
How does "Ubuntu" speak to you?
What would our relationships, our schools, our churches, our world look like if we lived with an awareness of our connection to one another?
"If we have no peace, it will be because we have forgotten that we belong to one another." -Momma T
When I am sick, we are sick. When you are hungry, we are hungry.
When she is oppressed, we are oppressed. I am because we are.
When you practice compassion, we learn compassion. I feel joy because we feel joy together.
LAUGH TOGETHER. GRIEVE TOGETHER. ASK HARD QUESTIONS. TELL STORIES. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF CONVERSATION.
THIS REVOLUTION IS A CELEBRATION.
