- Its both art and fashion with a very big heart!
- Nanna handbags could be loosely termed as fashion and art with a concience.
- Started by Henriette Balt as a method to raise funds for The JD Foundation, a foundation that feeds and schools children in Ethiopia, Nanna handbags has exploded and has taken everyone by surprise!
- Not only has the desire to own one of these pieces of art grown, but local communities are feeling the ripple effects of the benefits of this initiative too.
- Nanna makes use of Popup, a local Pretoria initiative that teaches unemployed people within the community new skills. These skills in turn allow them to find employment in order to generate a much needed form of income. Nanna handbags has given Popup the opportunity to facilitate this opportunity with one lady already, and we hope to soon have an entire team of people on board, working and earning money, while adding their own individual touches to each hand crafted handbag.
- In Ethiopia, the poverty levels are beyond your imagination, the living conditions of some children are just beyond comprehension! 20% of the proceeds of each sale go to the JD Foundation, which in turns ensures that a child is fed two meals a day as well as schooled for a year.
- With numerous additional local projects in the pipeline, Nanna hopes to put a smile on many children's faces!

- Nanna - she is clothed with strength and dignity and she laughs without fear for the future!
- Nanna Handbags are hand crafted, individually designed, one of kind handbags - no two bags are ever the same! Each handbag helps feed a child, send a child to school and helps to empower a previously disempowered woman through skills development and job creation.
