COVID-19
Relief Grant
During the early months of the pandemic, 95% of our artisan partners had to stop production.
The impact to global commerce has resulted in an 47% average loss in revenue since the beginning of the pandemic for our global partners.
Nine of our partners received small grant reliefs to help offset the financial impact.
Our Partners Share These Values
Dignified Employment For Women
The majority of employees are women - from artisans to leadership - often survivors of sexual exploitation or extreme poverty.
Direct Supply Chain
Cutting out distributors to provide a greater profit back to the artisan groups for reinvestment.
Community Development

INITIATIVE Program
Growing Justice Partnerships
Each year, we identify partners with great potential and help scale their impact. These partners are typically at a vulnerable stage in growth, and are in need of capital, training, and market development. We have launched four programs and helped grow four other enterprises, including:
- A residential program in Belize
- An irrigation system in Rwanda
- An moringa enterprise in Mexico
- A weaving enterprise in a refugee camp in Greece
