A selection of items created for Gruppo Tanzania by Tanzanian tailors using the finest local fabrics.
The garments and items in our Afric’AMA collection are made from the finest Tanzanian fabrics, such as::
kitenge wax,widely used in Tanzania to make men’s and women’s clothing;
khanga, used as a support by women carrying loads on their heads (buckets of water, baskets of vegetables, etc.), to express solidarity and closeness during life events (mourning, weddings, births, etc.), or tied around the waist over clothing;
Maasai fabrics,in various types and colors, these fabrics are worn as clothing by the Maasai themselves.
We asked some Tanzanian tailors and seamstresses to make these items, ensuring them fair compensation in respect and dignity for their work.
All proceeds from donations for the products in the Solidarity shop are used to fund the recovery project for street children and youth in Dodoma and Chigongwe, run by the Tanzanian NGO Kisedet.
The prices shown indicate the base donation, but you are free to contribute according to your means.
