We Are All Connected School Visit
Do you have a connection to a local school that you’d like to introduce to Paper Fig’s empowering programs in East Africa? It’s a great way to teach kids about a continent that is often misunderstood by Americans, and to emphasize the importance of building bridges across the globe.
Emily Weitz, Managing Director of the Paper Fig Foundation, orchestrates very special school visits where students can organize fundraisers and purchase special bracelets made by graduates of the PFF Skills Training Center. Read more about this amazing program here, and contact us to arrange a visit to your school!
The PFF Bazaar
PFF Bazaars are always a great time, and a great way to connect with the projects of the Paper Fig Foundation in a concrete way. We feature work from the Paper Fig Foundation tailors, as well as collaborators like Susan Barth Design, Salt & Soul NYC, Annerose Muyombano, and more. Check out some of the the items we carry at our bazaars here. If you would like to get involved in our next bazaar as a vendor or volunteer, Contact us !

We are all connected. That is the mantra at the Paper Fig Foundation. We invite you to join us as we stitch an invisible thread between the remote town of Kasese, Uganda to the bustling metropolis of New York City, and find a patchwork of connections all along the way.
