PASUCA & MUNGALA
There is nothing better than to see smiles on other people’s faces.
As a social entrepreneur, I take my role very seriously and travelled to Gumu (Ghana) in June 2010 to work with one of our adoptive co-ops. It was a great opportunity to witness what the money we had donated since October 2009 had been used for. It was also a chance for me to see which area(s) could be improved.
One such area was to teach the co-op soap making to help sustain them and their community by creating more employment.
These are the first batches of soaps we made using fair trade unrefined shea butter (produced by the co-op), marula oil from Swaziland and moringa oil from Uganda.
and here are the individual bars of soaps – proudly made in Gumu (Ghana) and packaged in Sonning (UK).
We believe in empowering men & women
We believe in ethical trading
We believe in supporting communities
We believe in helping to make poverty history!
