Indego Africa is dedicated to empowering artisan women in Africa through employment opportunities and education. We partner with more than 1,200 women in Rwanda and Ghana to sell products that are designed in New York City and handmade in Africa combining traditional techniques, local materials, and genuine artisanal skill. We invest 100% of our profits from product sales, coupled with grants and donations, into education programs for the artisans who handcraft our products and youth in their communities. Our approach to economic empowerment helps our partners develop the knowledge and skills they need to run and scale their own businesses, become profitable entrepreneurs, and lead change in their communities.
