Ubuntu Market
Vision
Ubuntu Market is a company that strives to contribute to global ministries. Ubuntu means "I am because of who we all are,". It is a Zulu proverb. The name was chosen because of the hope in unity (inviting others in) that I bring into my business. Ubuntu Market focuses on three different forms of creativity and art to positively empower women in their business ventures. The first goal of Ubuntu Market is to make wax wraps that solely contribute to ministry costs (counseling, training, and consulting to those in trauma, sexual exploitation, trafficking, domestic violence, and unwanted sexual behavior.) The second part of Ubuntu Market is working and disciplining women in small businesses. The items that are currently being created for our Ubuntu market are the Tikvah (hope) bags, sugar bags, grocery bags, and jewelry. Each of these bags is personally and beautifully hand-made in Uganda. The third focus of Ubuntu Market is working with Rahab Uganda and similar ministries that continue to support women who are coming out of human trafficking and sexual exploitation. In these ministries, Ubuntu Market strives to empower women to create and sell their innovations so that 100% of the profits from their sales go directly to the women in need and organizations. Ubuntu Market is dedicated to aiding women to generate their own income for themselves and for their families while encouraging their journey in their businesses.
