EMPOWERMENT
2 days ago, I received some pictures and just wanted to share the story behind these with you.
As some of you may recall, my rather hectic trip to Ghana in October 2008 included a soapmaking class for members of the shea co-op that I am very proud to support for the last 6 years and will continue to do so. Well, after so many phone calls with ideas being shared, I finally got a glimpse of the fruits of our labour. I am so proud to be a Ghanaian and even proud to learn that everything [mould, stamp, etc] used in the production is made in Ghana.
NOVEMBER NOVEMBER
November is a great month. Not only is Cioccolatina 7 years old this month, it also good to see a little bit of sun shining through the silver clouds with russet leaves falling down. Well, we are on the lookout for Cioccolatina's biggest fan :) Let your voice be heard and you could win yourself a £10 gift certificate.Don't be harsh on your skin this winter! What will be in your survival kit? Well, 2 products jump out to the rescue:
A PICTURE SAYS A THOUSAND WORDS .....
Firstly, I would like to thank you all for the shea love you have shown for the past 6 years. We have been very proud to support the same shea co-op back in Ghana all this time as we believe in loyalty. It is amazing how time has flown by and continue with our loyalty.
We have now adopted a new shea co-op in Gumu. The co-op is currently made up of 40 women - sorry no men involved. We believe in equality and empowering men & women. However, it is a tradition that women look after the children through education, etc.
