We love the exclusive bracelet<\/a> our friends at Raven + Lily<\/a> made for us. We love the story behind the bracelet even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raven + Lily<\/a>, a socially-conscious fashion brand,\u00a0made this bracelet with their\u00a0partner workshop\u00a0in northern Ethiopia. The workshop employs at-risk, HIV-positive female artisans, and provides them with\u00a0access to\u00a0HIV care and educational opportunities for their\u00a0families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/strong><\/p>\n
