The merchants selling their handicrafts are women who were forced to flee their homes in Africa. Shop the world with a percentage of the sales proceeds benefitting women’s shelters and orphanages in Africa. Along with great shopping, beginning at 7:00 p.m., representatives from the International Rescue Committee, Drop in the Bucket, and Jewish World Watch will present an overview of their outreach efforts to refugees in the Sudan region.
