"Love", "Where you live should not determine if you live" Tee Size Small {by Erica Shubin of The Road Less Traveled}





"Love", "Where you live should not determine if you live" Tee Size Small {by Erica Shubin of The Road Less Traveled

My pictures do not do this tee justice. It is a very high quality fitted tee size small with a powerful message supporting adoption and Africa. I have a tee that I bought while Erica was fundraising to bring her daughter home from Ethiopia and I LOVE my tee. It's the best fabric and comfortable fit. 

Minimum bid: $15

An African Safari from Kenya donated by The Sparrow Fund




An African Safari from Kenya 
Donated by The Sparrow Fund 
Store: www.thesparrowfund.etsy.com

Lovingly created by refugee women currently living in Kenya, women broken from war and HIV, caring for orphans in their community, but made whole together. This set of animals--an elephant, giraffe, rhino, and zebra--were donated by The Sparrow Fund, a nonprofit dedicated to providing support to families adopting internationally specifically through grants to be used for preadoptive medical reviews and counsel, in-country support, and postadoption support. They sell beautiful handcrafted jewelry and dolls on Etsy, pieces made by adoptive mothers in Kenya. It's a full circle approach in adoption support and orphan care--they desire to give their friend Mary (biological mother of 9 and adoptive mother of 7) an income so she can care for her family and the women she works with who make the beads while also raising money for The Sparrow Fund.
