The Mi Esperanza store philosophy is to provide shopping opportunities that go far beyond the purchase of a product. This summer 100’s of volunteers from all over the USA found the joy of purchasing with a purpose! Each purchase made at the store goes to supporting women living in extreme poverty. We are proud that every penny beyond the cost of production goes directly back into the Mi Esperanza educational program. Providing MORE classes for MORE women. Here are some ways your purchases are helping women in poverty:
The Women of Mi Esperanza and our educational program
A domestic violence shelter in Tegucigalpa where candles are made by women to support their shelter that keeps them safe.
A co-op of women who now make jewelry instead of “working” in the city dump
a co-op of women on the el salvador border who make pottery to earn a living
a co-op of women in Santa Barbara who weave baskets, purse to earn a living
