Who Are We?After eight years of ministry and travel
between He [Isaac] moved on from there
and dug another well,
and no one quarreled over it. He named it Rehoboth [meaning "space" or
"room"], saying, "Now the LORD has given us
room and we will flourish in the land." An outgrowth of our
call has been the creation of this e-business, African-art-and-crafts.com. Because we are passionate about the
transformation of Rehoboth is not just our story but also the story of the lives of many of the artists and crafts people featured on this site. Many of these people have faced years of hardship and opposition, wandering and searching for a place to call home. Yet each has been created in the image of God and has been given special gifts and talents to glorify Him. We have recently expanded to include an initiative called Kopano. Kopano means coming together or unity.

Our passion is to see poor women mobilized and empowered! Not alone but in community.
With over twenty years retail experience we work with South African business and organizations to give women
the keys which will unlock those doors. We work with people, like us, who desire to see lives transformed socially, economically and spiritually. We have seen the difference that our efforts have made in lives of many, encouraging them to hope in God and to work for a brighter future. We believe Rehoboth is a promise for them as well. There is a proverb which states that “a three strand cord is
not easily broken.”  
Previously denied access but now they have access global and local markets. Their goods are now available to thousands who visit this website each month.
We assist in locating funders so that the dream of operating their own business can become a reality. We believe that within a few years there will be hundreds of successful Kopano
partners, online or operating a Kiosk or a Store! |
