Made In Kenya

Nancy

Nancy is part of the Pendo Doll Collection

Pendo means love in Swahili

Bringing Nancy into your home will empower girls in Kenya to become equals in their communities.

Nancy is an Elimu Girl whose singing fills any room she enters, and her creative sewing makes her a star student. She is as huggable in real life as she is in doll form. Her dress was inspired by the Paris Fashion Show collection she sewed with Shannon of TomFooleryLA. Do you love the mini version of the dress that walked the runway?

Perfectly imperfect, each doll has been sewn by hand and embroidered by Elimu graduates in Malindi, Kenya at our Artisan Maker Space.

Your donation helps fund scholarships, room and board, supplies, and a sewing machine for young women in the Elimu Girls program.
