Our Mission at Eden Design Creative Company
At Eden Design Creative Company, we exist for a purpose. Our mission is to sell beautiful and unique jewellery whilst at the same time supporting the local artisans in the Acholi community in Uganda by paying a fair-trade price for their creations, and through the funding of a Bursary set up to encourage self-sustaining businesses. As much as is possible, we also strive to be environmentally friendly and ethical in all aspects of our company.

Fair-Trade
Our high-end unique jewellery pieces are created using beads purchased at a fair price from the artisans in the Acholi Community of Uganda, and help contribute to a regular source of income. The only other local source of income is working in the local quarry bashing up rocks into gravel where they earn the equivalent of 25p per day.
Strengthening Through Community
Through our initiatives and by bridging the gap between the online market and the crafts of artisans from Acholi Quarters in Uganda, we hope to help these individuals reach financial independence.
Investing in the future
Not only do we pay fair prices for the beads made by the artisans, but we also invest a percentage of each sale back into a bursary fund administered by CRED Foundation, a UK based charity with which we partner. The bursary fund offers loans and grants to individuals and families in order to start their own income generating businesses.
Eden Design Creative Company is a supporter of CRED Foundation, which partners with the Acholi Community in Kampala, Uganda. You can find out more about the work of CRED here.
