RECYCLING 4CHANGE


New life in Africa engages its community members on craft making. 99% of their craft products are made from recycling materials like all paper beads products from old magazines. We also make bangles, earrings and hand bags from polythene bags. Quilts from old T-shirts, Baskets from banana fiber and other natural materials. Besides the community makes shopping bags and Christmas ornaments from bottle tops. Shopping bags, baskets and mats from straw mats. And many others.

Through this, we are not only helping the community to generate income but also protecting our environment. your purchase of our craft products help our members buy house holds, pay rent ,meet medical bills and send their children to school. Before the invasion of crafts4change, since most of our community members are composed of people displaced by war from Northern Uganda, they were mostly working on the stone quarry cracking stones from sun rise to sun set earning less than a dollar a day!
