Hair Clips of Hope
Share
Hair Clips of Hope is a project activity operating as part of WDEA enterprises Artcycle. Each piece is unique and one of a kind. Thank you for your support.
This project connects Australian secondary school students with opportunities for life long learning and connects people with disabilities to meaningful employment. Jewellery and items sold under this label have been hand made using recycled and up-cycled materials. Part of the proceeds from every sale supports the teaching and development of global village thinking, innovation and sustainable employment for young women in Warrnambool and Malaysia.
Our Hairclips project has been growing and developing and some exciting news is that we will soon have our very own webpage link on the artcycle website where you will be able to order hairclips to sell (instead of chocolates!) for your next club or school fundraiser!
Making jewellery with the kids at the Krash Pad centre later today in KL - by building on the original project Harapan run by the SMU students in Singapore and sharing our ideas and teaching business creation skills to these girls simply means that in a few years they might be able to go to university and then get jobs.
