Description
At Shopping for a Change™, we give those in need a supportive a hand up not a hand out.
We provide an extended marketplace for artisans from marginalized communities around the globe, & give them the ability to create a sustainable way of life, thereby raising their standards of living, health & well being.
Shopping for a Change™ distributes 50% of our net proceeds for the benefit of these distressed communities. We grant the remaining 50% to a limited number of U.S.-based organizations whose charitable missions are related to those of our own; or to charitable organizations that have partnered with us to boost their fundraising.
