Jacaranda Living & Cathy Deale Someone You Should Know

Once you read about Cathy Deale you will understand why Gwendolyn's Gate is proud to be a retailer for Jacaranda Living. This line was our most popular seller at the Downtown Palatine Sidewalk Sale. Everyone who purchased Jacaranda was so pleased and when I told them the story as you will read below, they too, felt proud to be a great support to Cathy's company.
Cathy Deale was born on the Kwa Zulu Natal coastline of South Africa and grew up there until 1997 when she moved with her family to live in Boston, Massachusetts.
She always admired the high quality of work produced by the talented local Zulu women and wanted to try and help them expand their market horizons beyond South Africa.
Jacaranda Living (named after a beautiful tree that is prolific in South Africa) was established to support these wonderful people and their families who live in a harsh environment that is largely beset by poverty, crime and AIDS.
Every item is sold through retail stores. Every sale serves to help support these wonderful people.
Please come visit to experience this beautiful and elegant line of night wear and help Cathy support the Zulu women of South Africa!
There is a movie called "Pay It Forward" - which is very heart warming and the title says it all in 3 simple words on how to help someone else. So, be a part of "Pay It Forward" - knowing that you have helped someone is heart warming and remember what you give will be returned in some way!
We look forward to seeing you soon!
