They carry an amazing array of products, and once we get into a storefront (Lord willing!!) we fully intend to display every single one! But for now, we will be content to carry these beautiful jewelry pieces. Everything is absolutely gorgeous, well made and reasonably priced! The cuffs, bracelets, earrings and rings range in price from $8 to $14, and we are seeing similar products sold elsewhere for TWICE as much!
While not made by survivors of human trafficking like many of the items we carry, the sale of these pieces still affects the issue of slavery, primarily on the prevention side of things. Extreme poverty and the lack of job opportunities are some of the things that make a woman vulnerable to trafficking in the first place.
