The "Mata" Cap + Donation

$50.00

You get the cap. A village gets light.

100% of proceeds from every Mata Cap go directly to the field, funding our next village project.

Mata means "village," and each colorway is named for one. This cap was made by JumpStitchStudio on Etsy, an artist whose work we love, in a small batch just for The Shimsha Project. It's a brushed cotton snapback with custom wool felt lettering.The text reads Shula d’Shimsha, the closest Assyrian translation of “The Shimsha Project.”

Our first colorway, Ashitha, is named for my mother's ancestral village. The eggshell and pine come from our own colors and from the trees and nature that make Ashitha so beautiful.

Where your money goes
The Shimsha Project strengthens the resources Assyrian villages rely on, starting with solar streetlights. Our first project is fully funded: 8 streetlights for the village of Garmawa. Cap sales fund our next project and the village resources that follow. We keep our overhead close to zero, so your purchase goes straight to the villages.

Every order ships with a handwritten note from us. Thank you for being part of this.
