At Doore Dasi, the online jewelry store inspired by African heritage, we believe in the power of giving back to our roots. Our partnership with "From Us for Us," an informal group of young people from Burkina Faso now living in Italy, exemplifies our commitment to making a positive impact. This collaboration is a testament to the beautiful synergy between African-inspired jewelry and charitable initiatives aimed at fostering development in Burkina Faso.

"From Us for Us": Empowering Change from Within

"From Us for Us" is a dynamic organization driven by a simple yet powerful philosophy: development projects should be managed by those who understand the needs of their community best. In 2023, the group successfully paid the school fees for 259 children at an elementary school in Pissy. This achievement was made possible through the collective effort of each member, who contributed 10 euros per month. One of the group's members personally delivered the funds, gaining the trust and appreciation of the students by speaking their local language and demonstrating genuine care and connection.

This approach highlights the importance of direct involvement and cultural sensitivity in charitable endeavors. By eliminating intermediaries, "From Us for Us" ensures that the aid reaches those who need it most in a manner that respects their dignity and autonomy.

Current and Future Projects: Building a Better Tomorrow

Each year, "From Us for Us" selects a new project to address pressing needs within Burkina Faso. Last year, the focus was on education. This year, the goal is to build a well in a village with limited access to clean water. The group aims to raise at least 3000 euros and plans to oversee the project from start to finish, including selecting the construction company.

Doore Dasi: Jewelry with a Purpose

At Doore Dasi, we are proud to support "From Us for Us" by donating a portion of our earnings to their projects. Our store's name, which means "Homecoming Market" in the Bissa language of Burkina Faso, reflects our mission to reconnect with and support our motherland. Our logo, inspired by the Sankofa symbol, reminds us of the importance of looking back to our roots as we move forward.
