THE ROOTS PROJECT

The Roots Project is a Southern Sudanese non-governmental and non-profit organization that focuses on preserving and promoting traditional arts and crafts while generating income for women. Anyieth D'Awol launched The Roots Project in March 2009 and in September 2010 employed fifty disadvantaged women for making jewelry, pottery, embroidery, leather works, beading, and decorative household items. The Roots Project has a workshop along with a boutique located in Nimra Talata, Juba, South Sudan that provides jobs for young mothers, rural women, elders, disabled women, and women associated with the armed forces. Proceeds  from their sells provide the women with heath education, numeracy, and literacy classes. The Roots Project is doing a great job by uplifting the spirits and giving hopes to many South Sudanese women. If you would like more information
