Cuff Bracelet - Gold

Su Su’s smile is contagious the day her family and Eden staff gather to celebrate her baby’s 100 day birthday. In that moment, the journey of faith that brought her here feels so much nearer than the day her suffering began.

At eleven, she left school for a factory job. However, she didn’t earn enough to support her family. So she was excited when her boss told her about a better job in China. The young girl trusted his promises but found herself living in the nightmare of being sold over the border as a bride. After being locked in a hotel room for days, she escaped. Anti-trafficking officials helped her return to Myanmar, where she learned she was pregnant at Eden.

Just like the night she hid under a tree to escape her husband’s family, Su Su knew this was another moment to change her story. She embraced counseling and started a job making jewelry.

About Eden Jewellery

Eden’s programs are based in South-East Asia, host to more than half of the global total of human trafficking victims. In 2014 Eden began its programs in Myanmar, a nation that has been a hotbed for human trafficking for years. Political instability, natural disasters, and internal ethnic infighting have led to a devastating lack of opportunity for the people of Myanmar. Each time we purchase a piece of jewellery from Eden we are supporting women who have experienced human trafficking and exploitation in Asia. Behind each jewellery maker is a brave story, one of suffering and trauma, but also one of healing and hope. The girls learn a skill, earn a living and are able to access community resources such as drop in centre, emergency shelter, trauma councelling, vocational training and education.
