Have you always wanted to go to Kenya but need help figuring out where to start? We get it. Planning a trip to Kenya can be overwhelming and confusing, but that's where we come in. At Zawadisha, we're are here to make your wildest African dreams come true.

Sisal is famous for being an extremely strong and hardy material; it is resilient even to salt water! But there are ways to care for your basket. Here's how.

When you join us on a cycling tour through Kenya, we always recommend you arrive in Nairobi a day or two early to rest and recharge. There is so much to do in the capital city of Kenya that you might want to add an extra day to your trip!

Sourcing new handmade baskets from Africa isn't always easy. Sometimes you have to literally go to great lengths to find them. Our soon-to-be-released collection was months in the making, and here's how we did it.

We take great pride in the handmade goods we curate from across Africa, ensuring people are paid well and that we are enriching communities, rather than extracting from them. While our core work is providing small loans for household items with big impact in rural Kenya, our side hustle of selling goods is important for a few reasons.

Inspire Inclusion is this year's theme for International Women's Day, and that's just what we do daily at Zawadisha: We take action to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create environments where all women are valued and respected.
