ABOUT THE ARTISAN
Forged in Hope started with an artisan named Stephen who expressed himself through creating jewelry. He established his upcycled brass jewelry business in the heart of Kibera, the largest urban slum in Africa.
After Stephen died of typhoid, his wife Maureen continued his legacy and grew production volume to ensure ongoing work for the employees. From tragedy, Maureen has built a strong jewelry business, and she has also invested in multiple businesses in Kibera, creating opportunities for others and stimulating economic growth.
Maureen, a strong 31-year-old widow and mother of two, is the heart and soul behind Forged in Hope. She lovingly crafted your Medium Twisted Hoop Earrings with her own hands, just for you!
