In brief, RETCo. exists to help sustain an organization called Global Support Mission that works with local organizations, called Network Affiliates, in developing countries. Inside Global Support Mission exists a a program called Know.Think.Act. Know.Think.Act. allows people to get involved and raise money for actual needs in the organizations we support. So like I said, it is not all about great jewelry.
My name is Katie Sasser and I not only work for RETCo., but I also work for Global Support Mission (GSM). My husband and I live in Uganda, Africa working with one of our Network Affiliate's called Bringing Hope to the Family. So, from time to time I will post a blog that talks about what is going on over here, and how buying jewelry is changing the world one community, one family, one person at a time.
Recently, we finished a well in a village called Kariruga located in Western Uganda in the Katooke district. This money for this well was raised on www.knowthinkact.com. It was just people sharing the vision and wanting to give. This well supplies clean water to 29 families that can sleep better at night knowing that they do not have to worry about diseases due to unclean water.
stay adventurous
