We love any excuse to shop–especially when it’s for a good cause. Enter Indego Africa, a non-profit organization that partners with Rwandan artisans to sell their crafts in the United States. Indego Africa asked women from the Twiyubake Family cooperative to create three different bracelets to be sold exclusively at certain Polo Ralph Lauren stores. The woven bracelets are crafted from banana leaves and are available in three shades: straw, caramel and mixed. We can’t wait to stack these with our Silly Bandz.
