Danish make-up artist Simon Rihana created One Soul Bracelets to honor the memory of his son Lucca, who was born prematurely and tragically lost the battle with reduced pulmonary function, one of the great physical challenges that often comes with being born into this world too soon.
In the U.S., 1,500 babies are born prematurely every day. Every year, that is more than half a million children who experience a tough start in life; their bodies are not ready and complications often many.
One Soul bracelets are made from the nut of the Bodhi tree — a sacred fig tree growing in the Mahabodhi temple in Tibet — and designed by Black Dakini Jewels. As part of the design, heart shaped leaves, paired with a beautiful little wooden pearl, represents hope for a tiny new life. The bracelets are handcrafted by women in Nepal and gives them a chance to support their own children.
One Soul is a 100% non profit organization. When buying these multicolored bracelets, $11 of the sale price of $15 is donated to an organization that provide help and support for prematurely born babies and their families — something much-needed in such a time of crisis.
Like any act of compassion, these bracelets are best stacked.
