During the month of June we teamed up with one of our Indigenous-owned vendors, Culture Shock Jewelry, to help raise funds for the Legacy of Hope Foundation.

Through sales and direct donations on our website, together we helped raise over $3000 that will go towards their mission to educate and foster reconciliation, and to create just and equal relationships among all people in Canada.

To our community - for coming together to support and stand in solidarity with the Indigenous community we say:

Founder & CEO Telecia Knight, officially launched Asili Living Co. on March 31st, 2017. But her journey leading up to that day began three years prior when she had a medical incident after finding a mass on her stomach which turned out to be a large fibroid in her uterus. 

Thankfully, after the first diagnosis Telecia was successfully able to remove the fibroid and two cysts. In hopes of reducing the risk of future growth she spoke to her surgeon to inquire about any lifestyle changes she could implement - she was advised of dietary restrictions and told to avoid the use of Parabens. Parabens are preservatives commonly found in beauty products that scientific studies suggest can disrupt hormones in the body and harm fertility and reproductive organs, affect birth outcomes, and increase the risk of cancer. 

With this newfound knowledge, Telecia began researching and found that many popular brands used them along with other forms of toxic chemicals and questionable ingredients that contributed negatively to health outcomes. She relinquished hope of finding 100% natural products and began to research skincare ingredients and formulations which lead to the birth of Asili Living Co. in 2017, a toxin-free vegan skin and bath line.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the initiative between Ujimaa, Culture Shock Jewelry and the Legacy of Hope Foundation. Our community has come together in such a meaningful way by standing in solidarity and offering support to the Indigenous Community, which has led to limited stock of Culture Shock Jewelry on Ujimaa.

As a reminder, today is the final day to lend your support for this cause. Indigenous-owned Culture Shock Jewelry will be donating 100% of the proceeds of all purchases on Ujimaa to the Legacy of Hope Foundation. Ujimaa will also be donating 100% of our commission for every purchase of Culture Shock Jewelry on our website.

Beautiful pieces like the Square Black Marbled Earrings are still available. We also encourage you to donate directly to the Legacy of Hope Foundation, if you can.
