On the 4th Day of Christmas Macaroni Kid Gave to Me...

I am a Compassionate Entrepreneur with Trades of Hope.  I am honored to partner with a company that is empowering women around the world out of poverty, slums, and the sex trade – we are changing lives now & for years to come.  Trades of Hope is an official member of the Fair Trade Federation and our artisans make approximately 3-6 times more than they would normally make in the context of their country.  Trades of Hope is not a charity nor a not-for-profit organization.  We are a direct sales company that believes sustainable business is a long-term solution for change over charity.

By purchasing products from me, you will get beautiful, unique products (often one of a kind) & help women in the U.S. & approximately 16 countries around the world support themselves, their families, & their communities.  You may purchase directly from my website as it is open 24/7 or contact me to host a party to change more lives.  It’s also possible you, or someone you know, has a servant’s heart & is led to join my team on this wonderful journey of changing lives….yours & the artisans!

We can all be world changers; this just happens to involve jewelry, scarves, & beautiful things.  Let’s give HOPE!

Trades of Hope partners with multiple groups in India, groups that are committed to empowering women with a fair wage & a voice.  Women are given the chance to work from home while they take care of their families.  Not only do these groups provide their artisans education for their children, but many also receive health care & financial assistance. 

These groups are also committed to providing for those facing extreme discrimination as a result of their caste-system.  Those experiencing excommunication from their communities due to leprosy are given dignity & hope.  They receive healthcare & a way to support themselves in a positive environment.  These artisan groups offer the gift of sustainable business that not only affects one person, but also whole communities for generations to come!
