The Story Behind Revive Baskets

Revive Baskets, (also known on Facebook as Ugandan Basket Purchases), started in January 2021 after speaking with countless small-business owners and single mothers who were struggling immensely here in Uganda due to the effects of Covid-19.

 

These women relied almost solely on tourists into the country to purchase their baskets, but since the only international airport in Uganda was shut down completely for over 6-months, and the restrictions into the country have since been limited, they were hardly selling any baskets at all.

 

We took on this project with the goal of providing an international market (in the United States and Canada) for the artisans to sell their products (mostly baskets and wall hangings, but we also included some jewelry and various trinkets in the sales). Within a year of beginning this project, we had sold over 5,000 baskets on the artisans’ behalf! This made a huge difference to them, and many were able to branch out to new locations with their businesses and provide for their families once again. We post baskets (& more) for sale on our Facebook page generally twice weekly.
