Happy Friday! Before we get started with today’s round up of links, I want to ask you a question: how many times in the past week have you used your phone?

If you’re like me, chances are that number is A LOT! That’s why when Kim reached out to me about her charitable cellphone case company, Kidogo Kidogo—which translates to “little by little” in Swahili—I knew I had to tell you guys about it.

In Tanzania, only 36% of women own mobile phones, and the number one reason preventing them from ownership is the initial cost of a mobile handset. A mobile phone is a flashlight, a watch, a calculator, a camera and a radio. In Tanzania mobile banking is extremely common, and a phone provides women a way to make secure banking transactions. Mobile phones are also used monitor consumer markets and receive health reminders and updates. Women with mobile phones also report a much higher feeling of personal safety than those without.

So, now that we know the problem, what exactly does Kidogo Kidogo do to help? In short, they sell phone cases. But these cases do a lot more than just look good and protect your phone—they are putting life changing mobile technology into the hands of women across Tanzania, who could not otherwise afford it. The profits made from selling phone cases go to the purchase and donations of mobile phones. So if you’re in the market for a new iPhone or Android case, definitely consider Kidogo Kidogo—my favorite is the elephants marching one, shown above.

And now, onto my favorite finds across the Internet this week:
