A purchase from BlissGhanaMade is a contribution towards women and children empowerment - our inspiration is to find a sustainable market for the women in the Upper East Region of Ghana to showcase their craft, which will help alleviate poverty within their community and if possible set up an educational fund for their children.
These baskets are handmade, from elephant grass/straw. Therefore, no two designs are 100% identical.
