Relate bracelets are handmade and sold to make a difference and change lives. As a 100% not-for-profit social enterprise, the majority of Relate’s revenue is donated to credible causes and invested in social initiatives, with a focus on creating opportunities for all involved, at every stage of a project.
Through the sale of Save a Life in Your Sleep bracelets, Relate has raised more than $74,000USD to support Goodbye Malaria. Each bracelet is handcrafted in South Africa, and includes an informative display card to promote awareness about the fight against malaria.
Goodbye Malaria aims to eradicate malaria in Mozambique, while investing in Africa’s future, creating employment and protecting, changing and saving lives. This bracelet was inspired by Africa – it represents the continent’s heart and soul and the hope for better, happier lives and opportunities for the people of Africa. The yellow beads represent sunshine, life, and happiness to communities and families who have been in the dark – families that have been smitten by the disease. The red beads symbolize ‘the heart’, which represents ‘life’. Inspiration behind the red beads comes from the stamens of the Citronella flower – without the stamens there is no life.
