WE SUPPORT HAND/EYE HAND/EYE Fund’s artisan grant program supports Haitian artisans in their struggle to rebuild their lives and businesses in the aftermath of the January 2010 earthquake. Proceeds from sales of the hearts go to the fund’s artisan grants program in Haiti – which offers small cash grants to artists and artisans who need to rebuild houses and workshops, replenish tools and raw materials, and gain access to design input from the markets in which they are trying to sell. www.handeyemagazine.com Photography Edward Addeo
