Seeking social innovations found a project that made the Spanish brand Pikolinos, which consisted in supporting the Maasai of Kenya, women artisans in Africa, and thus address their empowerment without neglecting their culture.
It is also important that the sale of hand-embroidered sandals is made by adult women, because they are not children allowed to work.
The company Pikolinos said of the social project: "It is possible to help communities who are at risk, such as the Maasai tribe, or who are in a situation of poverty, not writing checks or signing aid money but providing tools for themselves they can look for better future and improve their living conditions "
A beautiful testimony of a person who visited the Maasai people....
"The silence in the savannah, the grandeur of space, the Mara river, wild animals, warriors or the smiles of the Maasai are some things you never forget when you visit the Maasai Mara."
A good reflection...
For a Maasai are the most important values have good heart, respect nature and take care of your community; values in the Western world often go unnoticed.Most Maasai women are working with the project Pikolinos have needs like clean water, medicine, or financial means to finance the education of their children. Now, with this initiative and thanks to the stable wages received from Pikolinos, these needs are becoming a reality, we can all contribute to this project and more than a thousand families Maasai continue to have reason to smile, keep building among all other world.
