ABOUT THE ARTISANS

This basket was handmade in a fair trade women's cooperative in Uganda.  With a mission to help vulnerable women by providing opportunities for income, our weaving partners sell crafts both locally and internationally. In addition to earning a fair income, women are also provided with opportunities to be educated about personal health, family planning, hygiene and HIV/AIDS education for the betterment of their families.  These women are superbly talented weavers who are continuing a tradition that has been passed down through the generations.
