Senhoa is a non-for-profit organization that provides social services to women and children vulnerable to sexual abuse, exploitation and trafficking. They provide income-generating opportunities, social reintegration and programs for self-empowerment. Jewelry-making is one of Senhoa's ways to achieve these goals, as you can see in this video (narrated by Coco Rocha):

I emailed Senhoa to ask about the gorgeous Phary earrings ($105) you see above. Unfortunately, they're not clip-ons so I can't wear them (my ears aren't pierced). I'm looking at some of the other items now. Sure wish I could pull of the choker Iman is wearing.For more information see http://senhoa.org/cocorocha/cocorocha-collection.php and http://www.senhoa.org/index.php .
I'm always envious of ladies with long necks. Put a choker on me or a bib necklace and it looks like I'm being strangled. lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a relavent charity. I currently live in an area where there is a majority of immigrants from Asian countries and yes this is an issue in their countries. It has been an issue for decades. I think I'll order the bracelet it's beautiful. Thanks for shining a light on this for us! Do you have a facebook page also? I would like to be able to share some of your posts (such as this one) with my friends. Take care!
