I love shopping here knowing that my purchases help support international artisans in earning a fair wage. I can always find a perfect gift for the right price - soaps and spices, jewelry and clothing, notebooks and handmade bags, dishes, games and simple instruments. No plastic.

It’s a beautiful non-profit store with handmade products coming from all over the world. They help poor people from developing countries by training them to make products and pay fair price. Most of their staffs are volunteers, (including myself). I felt really happy while volunteering there as I felt I am part of helping poor people. The staffs are really helpful and the place os full of diverse cultural items. I love going to the store in different cities as I simply like to go there and see the talent these countries have to offer. And when you buy stuffs, your purchase is directly impacting the lives of people in need. What more could I ask for.
