Have you all heard of 31 Bits? I hadn't, but when they contacted me with some info about their amazing company, there was no doubt in my mind to share them with you!

31 Bits is a socially-minded business here in Southern California started by 5 college students. They use fashion and design to empower women to rise above poverty. They work with women in Northern Uganda who are making jewelry out of recycled paper. By selling the jewelry here, they not only provide a sustainable monthly income for the women, but also education and development programs that prepare the women for future careers. They are able to send 80% of their profits directly into their programming in Uganda! Their jewelry has been featured on E! News, NBC Los Angeles, in People Style Watch, and Jessica Alba was recently photographed rocking a 31 Bits necklace!

Amazing programming, isn't it? Any form of uplifting women and supporting female empowerment is right in my book!

31 Bits was kind enough to send me this gorgeous orange necklace, and are even kinder to offer a piece to one of my readers!
