Clara's Story of Hope For years, Clara's job kept her from being with her family. Then she built a workshop in her home so she could work with her husband and have more time to spend with her children. When other parents from her village still needed to travel far away to earn enough income to feed their families, Clara invited them to become Artisans in her workshop. Now these parents in Guatemala can feed their children, send them to school, and enjoy spending time with their families.

My kids love this backpack, especially my 1.5 year old daughter! We’ve ordered several and the variation makes each one so unique and adorable. These are perfect to keep on hand for kid birthday parties…I just pull one out of my stash, fill it with snacks and the gift is ready!
Cannot wait to give this to our granddaughter for Christmas!
Your littles will carry this friend everywhere. He holds so much stuff. We got a couple of diapers wipes a change of clothes and a few toys for a day out in this bag. They are so proud to carry a bag like the big kids.
Each one is different. Created by hand in Guatemala! Kids love them. My go to gift for 2-6yr. olds.
Super adorable! 🥰
