At Same Sky, we believe the best philanthropy is a good job.

We are a trade initiative, and we work to create employment opportunities for women struggling to lift themselves out of extreme poverty. With collectives based in Rwanda and the USA, we see firsthand that real change happens with the dignity of work and the freedom of being self-sufficient. We tap into the Same Sky Artisans’ talent and potential and provide them with training and tools. Our Rwandan artisans earn 8 times the median hourly wage in Rwanda, and 100% of net proceeds are reinvested to train and employ more artisans in need.

The true value of a Same Sky bracelet is empowerment. It is a ribbon that ties you to courageous women a world away—a beautiful piece of jewelry made more beautiful by the connection it symbolizes and how it makes you feel.
