About UsI have periodic events where I sell crafts from Uganda. I am from Uganda and all the crafts I sell are handmade there except for a few which were handmade in Kenya. I have baskets, jewelry, handbags, baby mobiles, Christmas nativities, hand crafted artwork including batik and inlaid designs, toys, and some other items. I use the proceeds from the sale of the crafts to pay the school fees for children in Uganda. All profits support education for Ugandan children.

Who We Are |
I'm Margaret Asiimwe Lahaie. I grew up in a rural village in Western Uganda. I met my husband Brent when he came to Uganda in 2007. Since 2010 we've been married and living in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, raising our family of four children.

Our History |
With help from my husband Brent and my children, I import handmade crafts from Uganda as a way of raising money to help pay school fees for children in Uganda. I started by bringing a few items from Uganda to sell at various churches, then for a time I had a weekly booth at a local farmer's market here in Pittsburgh. Now we have periodic sales, especially during the holiday season, which are typically held at churches and other locations around Pittsburgh.
