Fighting poverty among women through Basket Weaving project

Woman weaving a basket

Coiling its way into your heart is the classic Ugandan basket!  Baskets are perfect gifts which can be highly functional or purely decorative.

Most of the baskets are made from a local fibre taken from a type of palm leaf called raffia which is wrapped around long strips of banana leaf stems.

Well weaved baskets are used at different tradional activities like Introduction ceremonies, Child naming ceremonies among others thats why HESAI we are encouraging women in our community to engage in this profitable business thus fighting poverty in their homes and increasing house hold income because Baskets are selling like hot cakes.
