Partners in African Prosperity
We value the African mentality of accomplishing more by involving a whole community. In August 2006, we introduced the Partners in African Prosperity Network (PAP-Net).Our partners are non-profit organizations that employ a sustainable, hands-on approach to development in regions where our artisans live and work. The PAP-Net mission is two-fold: to educate our community of customers about these vital non-profits, and to get our customers involved in allocating Swahili donations.
While making purchases online, in our stores or at gift shows, shoppers choose one of our partners to receive a $1 retail or $5 wholesale donation from Swahili Imports.
Since August '06, Swahili customers have directed over $10,000 to our current partners, Aid to Artisans and the Makindu Children's Program, as well as past partners, Global Partners for Development and the Harambee Centre. Even better, many individuals have been introduced to these vital organizations for the first time.
During checkout, watch for the invitation to choose a partner to receive a Swahili donation--at no cost to you!
