During Parent-Teacher interviews and the last week of November, Global
George is selling Rafiki chains. What are Rafikis?
-Rafiki means “friend” in Swahili.-The Maasai Mamas (Kenya) bead them and they are beautiful. Two GSMS
teachers actually went to Kenya and beaded with the mamas and saw how these are
making a difference in their lives.Beading gives them a job with good income.Beading them also sends their daughters to school. It costs money for
girls to go to school after grade 8 in Kenya.
They are multifunctional chains that you can wear as a bracelet, necklace,
anklets etc. There are 6 different colours, each represent a pillar of sustainability
for a community. Please help support Global George in this campaign. They
make great Christmas gifts.
Please contact:

if you would like any and you can arrange pick up. They sell out fast so don’t
wait too long!
