Fair Trade
We make it easy for you to improve peoples’s lives around the world and shop responsibly through our online store and fundraising programs. By choosing to purchase from our community you’re helping to eradicate poverty, promote social justice, and provide clean, safe water to those in need.
All of our Handmade Treasures support our Sustainability Programs and our Apparel products all support our Educational Programs.
Here's an example of how our products give back: The purchase of a single bracelet provides 200,000 gallons of clean water and 5 bracelets provide 1 million gallons! That is pretty awesome, right? The profit from 5 bracelets will provide one water filter to a family in need. While the women are busy beading, our local leaders spend time sharing on a number of important health, family life, and educational-based topics with them.
Who doesn't love a TRIPLE give back? All of a sudden changing the world doesn't seem too hard! You can be a part of it all.
