The Dupoto Women's Group
Established 1993
Isinya, Kenya

Kenyan School Sponsorships
Since 1998

  The Dupoto Women’s Group is a BEADS project now consisting of 25 women who produce high quality beaded dog collars, coasters, trivets, headbands, baskets and key fobs which are marketed by volunteers in the United States. All of the profit is returned to the women’s collective. This is their primary source of income and these women support over 128 children (as of Sept '04). Due to their success, the Dupoto Women’s Group has received funding from USAID and has been selected as a role model for other women’s groups in Kenya.
