The First Few Weeks

Indego Africa is a non-profit social enterprise that is committed to improving the lives of Rwandan woman artisans.  The name stands for INdependace, DEvelopment, GOvernance... IN DE GO.   Woman in Rwanda make products from pillow covers to necklaces that are then sold at high-end retailers in the U.S.

I began my internship as their graphic designer in January.  Since then I have had an abundance of projects for them and I have been enjoying using my creativity.  My projects have included updating wholesale catalogs, redesigning postcards and doing some product photography.  Here is a sneak peak at some of the work I have been doing:




  
  
The Indego Africa team has also been working hard to add tags to 9,000 rope bracelets to be sold at J.Crew.  It is going to take a while to do, but with everyone helping it will get done!

In the office with everyone to get the tags done
