Meet the Artisan

Rosa's Story of Hope My name is Rosa, and I am from Chichicastenango, a town in the department (state) of El Quiché. Thank you for carrying our products, because for us, it is a huge help... for my daughters... and my fellow countrywomen of Chichicastenango because they also need money to provide for their children's schooling. So, I want to thank you all... and Edgar and his wife (Artisan leaders in Guatemala)! Thank you to you all, thank you, thank you!

The Impact of Your Purchase

In Guatemala, gender discrimination and a lack of opportunities prevent many women in areas of extreme poverty from receiving an education or earning a living wage. But these women are utilizing their traditional skills to create beautiful products that reflect their culture and empower them to provide for their families at home. As Artisans and business owners, women in rural villages are now able to feed, clothe, and pay for their children to go to school - opening doors to a brighter future for the next generation in Guatemala! Purchase this bag strap and empower a woman in Guatemala!
