Handmade with Purpose.

Creating opportunities through creativity, practical skills, and purposeful work.

We are a fair trade organization dedicated to making Handmade Products that Transform lives in Zambia - educationally, economically, and eternally.

RecycloCraftz is Global 8235’s vocational training program. We are a faith-based initiative founded in 2008, helping vulnerable women and men from nearby high-density, low-income communities develop practical skills and create opportunities through their craft.

Our work is about more than making products. Through creativity, skills, and meaningful work, we aim to bring hope, build confidence, and create opportunities for a better tomorrow.

Every product comes with a unique tag identifying the artisan who created it, along with a brief story about the impact the project has on their life. We believe that the people behind each creation deserve to be recognized and celebrated.

In everything we say and do at RecycloCraftz and our larger organization, Global 8235, the ultimate goal of founder Tracy Murray is to make an eternal difference in the lives of those who encounter our ministry through our work, a purchase, a visit, or even by reading about us.

MISSION

We are making an educational, economic, and eternal difference in the lives of the impoverished, widowed, unemployed, and orphaned women, men, and youth in Zambia through literacy development, vocational training,and discipleship.
