Kelly Weinberger of World
Finds works with artisans
World Finds works directly with artisan groups, and takes the time to educate
them about current trends in the US marketplace, partner with them to develop
new designs, share knowledge and discuss ongoing issues to continually improve
their products.
World Finds partners with fair trade organizations, self-help groups, and small
families of artisans that strive to make a difference in their communities.
These organizations have made a commitment to social welfare and provide many
services to their producers including: ongoing education and training, health
care services, subsidized meals, day care, schooling, and AIDS awareness.
