T H E S T O R Y31 Bits Designs is a socially minded business designed to give internally displaced women

in Northern Uganda an opportunity to counter poverty. By giving our beneficiaries access

to the international market, they are able to earn an instant income, providing homes,

food, and education for their families. Our program equips women by providing literacy

education, financial and vocational training, holistic care, and strong support systems,

empowering individuals to further their careers and attain social equity.

D E S I G N I N S P I R A T I O NMontage is a technique used to combine elements from various sources, allowing

the elements to retain their separate identities while together creating a magnificent

composition. Our Ugandan designers have created their own montage, by joining our

organization as individuals, each with unique stories and talents. By combining their

skills and creativity, they are able to produce a product that has changed their lives

socially, economically, and emotionally. Unexpected combinations often bring beauty,

newness, and boldness, and that is exactly what we have done with our Winter 2011 line.

By combining unexpected textures and colors, we have created a line that will unravel your

senses, feelings, and emotions—the very textures that create your personal Montage.

M E E T A G N O R W O T L I L L I A N Lillian’s smile can light up a room and her genuine personality draws people to her older

than herself. She is kind hearted and always willing to help. As a single mom, she has an

inner strength that is seen in her friendly and intentional interactions with others. Lillian is

very grateful for her job at 31 Bits and hopes to start her own business so that she can put her

son through school. DESI

M E E T A T O O F L O R E N C EFlorence is very much respected on the 31 Bits

compound both for her wisdom and strength. She

is often found leading the women in group-prayer

and speaking passionately about God’s love and

faithfulness. Along with being a role model and a

strong influence in the lives of other women, Florence

loves to dance and have a good time. Whether a native

Acholi dance of her homeland or learning the electric

slide, this lady can move! Her laugh is a familiar

sound and brings instant smiles to those around her.

Florence hopes to one day open a restaurant but in the

meantime, her joyful personality and strong faith will

continue to benefit all of those working at 31 Bits.
