It all began when little Abigail gifted her German tutor a picture she painted herself. He had it printed on T-shirts and sold it to pay the girl's school fees. This gave rise to the Stuttgart-based social enterprise Kipepeo, which is supported by a strong network of helpers. Today it has fairly produced organic cotton T-shirts manufactured in Tanzania and printed in Germany with drawings of Tanzanian girls and boys. Kipepeo is using the proceeds to pay for school fees and materials as well the construction of new school buildings in Africa.
