    Story Behind the Art:

    The sign for the Teenage Mothers Association of Kenya indicates that it is 'the last house towards the Obunga slums,' the most destitute area of Kisumu. TEMAK is an organization that offers job training in tailoring, hairdressing, secretarial skills, craft making, and recently computers to unwed mothers, girls, and others in the Obunga slum community. As a community center, the organization also provides the community with an educational forum for HIV/AIDS awareness and other health issues.

3 blue painted African greeting cards

yetiyes from Michigan, Aug 13, 2009

I gave one of them to my neighbor and she liked it so much that she is going to put it in a small frame and display it.I like the idea that it is part of the Fair Trade program where the people who produce them are suppose to get more of the money.
