We just love how cool African products are available everywhere we look these days - Rwandan peace baskets at Macy’s and now Ghanaian bracelets and necklaces are available on the Animal Rescue Site.

The bracelets and necklaces are fun, fair-trade items that showcase Ghanaian workmanship and each one purchased funds 14 bowls of food for animals living in sanctuaries and shelters.

In fact, if you go to http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com and search on “Ghana” you’ll find other great stuff too, like ornaments, wallets and the cutest kids’ batik backpacks. 

You can even buy a business grant for rural African women (that purchase is tax deductible in the US too)!

These are great, inexpensive birthday presents or stocking stuffers at Christmas - so why not get yourself some great African-crafted items and help rescued animals at the same time?!
