About Tuli

Tuli fights poverty by creating sustainable jobs in East Africa. Every product is handmade using recycled paper beads, brass, and horn by our talented, tenacious artisan partners and provides them a stable, living wage. And unlike other fair trade brands, we hire our artisans for life, so they can rise out of poverty for good. We are obsessed with elevated design and quality, but Tuli is more than just jewelry. We are empowerment. We believe that charitable efforts, while noble, do not provide a long-term solution to poverty. Instead, economic development and job growth are the key to eliminating poverty for good. Our mission at Tuli is to create steady, fair-waged jobs for our partner artisans in Uganda and Kenya. Through their work with Tuli, our artisans are able to feed their families, educate their children, and rise out of poverty. We’ve had artisans send their children to university, start their own businesses, buy land, and invest in their futures. Whether our artisans eventually leave to pursue new opportunities their economic and educational empowerment opened or whether they keep their jobs with us long-term, we focus on impacting their lives with every business decision we make. It amazes us that something as simple as jewelry can create such enormous change in East Africa, not just for our artisans, but for generations to come! Read their story
