Yata Lidded Basket - royal blue

The Yata basket is the perfect size for the assortment of knick-knacks in your life. Set it on a stand near the door to store your keys, phone, and wallet; display it on your end table or your entry for a pop of culture and color.

They each will have slight variations in design, color, and size as this is a one-of-a-kind handmade product.

Woven with elephant grass (belongs to the sweet grasses) and recycled plastic.
Approximately 10x8" Wide

Care Instructions: Because they're constructed with natural materials, Expedition Subsahara baskets don't tend to get dirty. Let's say you spill coffee on a coaster or drop something on your basket; just use as little water as possible to wipe it off (if needed) and let it sit until it dries. Do not soak your basket or let it sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods.

Expedition Subsahara Mission:
Our mission is to build a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math) school for girls in Senegal, West Africa. We know that when girls are educated, they can (and do!) change the world.

If you educate a man, you educate an individual. If you educate a woman, you educate a nation. - African Proverb

It's simple - we want to empower Senegalese girls through education to serve their country as doctors, scientists, engineers, leaders, whatever their hearts desire. This, in turn, will lead to economic improvements, creating a ripple effect in healthcare, infrastructure, technological innovation and the livelihood of all people.

In 2020, we hit our first major financial milestone. Twenty percent of proceeds from every Expedition Subsahara sale is set aside in the education fund. We now have the capital to purchase the land where our school will sit. In 2021, we will seek out the perfect location for the school.
