This includes training women to make bracelets to sell for an income and establishing community-based permaculture gardens. The OBC was founded by director Louise Hogarth, who was inspired by the women and children in her film “Angels in the Dust.”

We use only lead-free copper, brass and aluminum wire, as well as recycled rubber. 100% of the proceeds go towards helping mothers and children in Africa whose lives have been severely impacted by HIV/AIDS. Wear your orphan bracelet for any occasion. They are great to stack and won’t set off airport security. DO wear them in the shower.

I have worn these bracelets for years. I met the incredible Louise Hogarth, founder of DO Ubuntu Orphan Bracelet Campaign some years back and immediately bought one of her bracelets. Over the years I have owned many, but people love them so much I have given most of them away. I introduced famed Hollywood Producer of movies like Pretty Woman, Gary Goldstein to the bracelets and he has worn his for years and I believe he still has them on today. – JW
