Fair Trade - Madagascar Raffia Palms



It’s most important to distribute money throughout the developing nations who are the most hurt by economic downturns. Matters deteriorate without our assistance, but instead of looking for a handout, a women’s cooperative on the island of Madagascar has created the most beautiful crocheted and woven bags out of local renewable and sustainable raw materials. Your purchase helps support fair trade, fund early local education, and brings financial independence to a community brimming with talent and inspiration.
