Monarch Tote
Handmade by survivor artisans from New Hope Girls in the Dominican Republic to provide sanctuary, education, and employment for survivors of exploitation.

It's made with high-quality fabrics that would otherwise be scrapped and features an open bag design with a large interior zippered pocket, an open exterior pocket and fixed, fully lined straps - providing convenience and ease of use.
- 17” W x 15” H with two fixed straps
- Upcycled materials; fully lined with zipper closure
- Turn inside out and wash on a gentle cycle. Air dry and use a warm iron, if needed.
