This Handmade Recycled Paper Bracelet 'Bonds of Friendship in Pink' is a charming and fun accessory. Designed by the Asociación ADISA, the bracelet features tightly wound beads of recycled paper accompanied by tiny pink glass beads. It is secured by a pink crystal bead. The piece, which provides meaningful employment to youth with disabilities, is a beautiful representation of the association's commitment to community and hope.
Asociación ADISA was founded in 1997 by Francisco Sojuel and María Argentina Figueroa, inspired by the life of their daughter, Nyla Eliza, who was born with hydrocephaly and later passed away at age seven. Determined to transform their grief into purpose, they created a community for parents and children with disabilities in Santiago Atitlán. What began as small weekend gatherings has grown into a respected organization offering special education, physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and skills training. Over the years, ADISA has developed innovative recycling projects, including crafts made from glass and newspaper, providing meaningful employment and income for young people with disabilities. Guided by love, resilience, and a belief in inclusion, the association empowers families to overcome social stigma and offers opportunities for dignity and independence. Each handcrafted piece reflects not only creativity but also a powerful commitment to community and hope.
Handcrafted in Guatemala with recycled paper, glass beads, crystal beads, and cotton thread. The length is adjustable from 7 to 7.5 inches. Colors and motifs may vary slightly.
