Clivia's Story of Hope "I come from a small family and was raised in one of the most dangerous areas in Port-au-Prince. I cannot imagine what life would be like without my work. I would have to depend on the help of others. I love when I hear there are new orders and that I'm able to come to work the next day! Trades of Hope and this Artisan community have helped by providing jobs.I have my own family now, and we've moved to a safe area since I started working at this workshop. Now, I'm an independent woman and I'm able to help my mother. My dream is to have enough money to be able to build my own home!"

Haiti is home to almost 500,000 orphans. The majority of Haiti's orphans have not been orphaned by parental deaths, but instead have parents, grandparents, and relatives who love them, but surrendered them to orphanages because they could not feed them. This workshop in Haiti provides local parents with a safe workspace to earn sustainable income that empowers them to keep and provide for their children. These Artisans in Haiti are overcoming extreme poverty, political unrest, and gang violence, as they create ethically made jewelry, accessories, and home decor to keep their families together and provide their families with brighter futures.
