A wonderful website and center for funding the dream businesses of artists who need just a little support is BuildANest.com Now they have partnered to help stop human trafficking in India. See http://www.buildanest.com/destiny.asp for how to help. Nest devises ways to help artists and under privileged groups sustain themselves by financing their own business.
Just by buying handmade and wonderful creations by these designers from both the U.S. and abroad you can use fashion and design to help finance their no interest loans and businesses. No guilt shopping!!! One wonderful example of a talented female designer and recipient of the Nest loan is Chantel Dovinde of Togo, her label. From Kpalime, her batik business also provides employment for other women in the small village. With one of kind fabrics and the refined laid back look of the natural handles you can't go wrong with this clutch! If you love the look of Guatemalan textiles and purses you can find nice examples on Nest as well. Check Nest for unique fashions for the home and body which support a great cause.
