Each bracelet is hand-stamped with the words, "elikia ya sika." "Elikia ya sika" is "new hope" in Lingala, the language largely spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo! 1 bracelet = 1 month of school for a child living in Congo
As you glance at your wrist, you'll be reminded of the new hope you gave a child and the new hope you carry with you every moment of every day.
