NEURS COMPASSION ENTREPRE Do you want to make a difference? Not only in the world, but also in your own life? Trades of Hope gives you the opportunity to earn an income while selling beautiful Fair Trade products made by women in need around the globe. Become a Trades of Hope Compassion Entrepreneur and you become more than a successful business woman— you help other women become successful, too!
Going to Haiti helped me to better understand how the work we do—marketing and selling our artisans’ products —impacts the lives of people who need our help. Giving them a sustainable income offers them opportunity, security, and a dignity that charity could not.
Beverly, CE since 2013
The trip to Haiti was incredible! The relationships I built, the experiences I had, the people I spoke with, the places I visited, all encourage me to be bolder, learn more, and trust that God has placed this desire to serve and it is my time to fulfill this purpose.
Christine, CE since 2012
Women recovering from acid attacks create products and find new purpose together.
