Rosa Bracelet

Maria's Story of HopeMy community is very poor. We live in the mountains and some of us don't have electricity. I don't know what my life would be like without my work. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry. I'm married with two small children - one girl and one boy. They are the light of my life! I'm able to care for my children and help support my home with my husband. I'm able to pay my kids' tuition and buy them uniforms without worrying. I hope that my kids continue to go to school and get the education I never got.The consistent orders from Trades of Hope give me calmness in an otherwise unpredictable world of being an Artisan. I know that this is a long-term relationship that will bring me income for some time, which allows me to breathe a little easier for me and my kids.
