We love the exclusive bracelet our friends at Raven + Lily made for us. We love the story behind the bracelet even more.
Raven + Lily, a socially-conscious fashion brand, made this bracelet with their partner workshop in northern Ethiopia. The workshop employs at-risk, HIV-positive female artisans, and provides them with access to HIV care and educational opportunities for their families.
In addition to creating important opportunities for these hard-working and skilled women, the bracelet itself stands as an important symbol for peace and hope: Its metal beads were melted down from the bullet casings of former war conflicts.
