Kimber joins me from Seattle, Washington to talk about kimber elements, a social enterprise focused on sculpting bonds between women and wildlife in Kenya.

\\n

Kimber\\u2019s organization creates jewelry that combines the traditional craft of the Maasai people, including intricate beadwork, with the minimalist aesthetic Kimber has refined herself, over years of being a metalsmith.

\\n

Proceeds from jewelry sales support economic stability for women living in the Amboseli region, where interaction with wildlife is common, and give young girls the opportunity to study wildlife conservation.

\\n

SIMPLE IDEA:

\\n

Purchase products that support communities living near wildlife. Become a part of a sustainable solution by contributing to the income of people living in areas that are likely to have wildlife conflict. Kimber elements is a great option. Check the show notes for more ideas.
