Wangari Kamau
Product and Interdisciplinary Designer
Wangari is the Founder of Umba Creations where she is building a socially conscious children’s brand; The Rafiki Values Tribe.
Her mission is to bring the very best character values to life for children in their most formative years through toys and stories.
Each of the products is lovingly made to reflect the beauty of diversity, teach African values, and encourage children to love and respect themselves and their communities.
Wangari has been creating wholesome short African stories which parents, guardians and teachers can access and use as additional resources for their children.
She recently published her first picture book “The Special Secret Sauce”, a story on teaching children to embrace and celebrate differences and is currently working on her next one.
