Progress in the Fair Trade Zone

Weaving Loom

Thank you so much to those who recently gave to our GlobalGiving July Bonus Day fundraiser. Your continued support is allowing us to provide an empowering workplace for women in Ghana. As you know, we have been working diligently to complete each phase of the Fair Trade Zone (FTZ). We were thrilled to share that the space for the batikers is complete. Unfortunately, due to rising building costs, we have been delayed significantly in completing the covered outdoor space for weavers. Currently, the Mamas must reposition weaving looms to avoid working in the direct sun and rain which can slow down the production process. We hope to raise enough funds to see the completion of this space soon. We will certainly keep you posted on our progress. Thank you as always for supporting the Mamas and being part of a community that brings about positive change.
