The Blessing Basket Project Charity Profile

The Blessing Basket Project is different from any other poverty relief organization in the world. While we aren't the first organization to think of buying handicrafts from artisans in the third world and providing a market in the United States - we are unique in the way we treat our artisans. The financial model we developed means artisans are guaranteed at least 2.5 times fair trade for their products. Bottom line - buying a basket from us means the artist who made it will earn more from The Blessing Basket Project than from any other basket buyer in the world - and that translates into sustainable poverty reduction in their life. We exist to reduce poverty in third world countries by creating sustainable jobs and paying prosperity wages.

Each of those 3,000 people has at least 5 family members who rely on them for support. That means that when you help us, you are making a difference in the lives of at least 15,000 people across six countries in the world.
