Swahili's Benevolence Partners

We value the African mentality of accomplishing more by involving a whole community. In August 2006, we began raising funds for selected African non-profit organizations under our Partners program.
 
Our partners are non-profit organizations that employ a sustainable, hands-on approach to development in regions where our artisans live and work. The mission of our partners program 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 current partners to receive a $1 retail or $5 wholesale donation from Swahili Imports.
 

    

Since August 2006, Swahili customers have directed over $10,000 to our current partners, as well as past partners, Global Partners for Development, the Harambee Centre and Aid to Artisans. 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!
