Ajiri
Tea: Ajiri means 'to employ' in Swahili.  The goal of this company is to create employment for women and pay school
fees for orphans in western Kenya . 
The tea is grown by small-scale farmers on 1-2 acres of land.  Sara and
Ann hope to empower these women within their communities.  All profits
will go back to this area of western
Kenya to pay school fees for the
many HIV/AIDS orphans. 

Aijiri Tea mades a beautiful gift: a stong,
black tea that you prepare with milk, it comes in a lovely box and a tie that
makes a great friendship bracelet and everything is hand-made.  It’s
available at Blue Apron, the Park Slope Food Coop, Java Joe's, and Grab, and each
box is about $12 – a really lovely stocking stuffer/ gift with a mug or a
tea pot!
