The Philippines
Threads of Hope
Threads of Hope began as a way to assist economically oppressed families living in impoverished areas throughout the Philippines. Today, more than 350 artisans make colorful thread bracelets which they sell in order to provide a sustainable income for their families. To some, the artisan’s circumstances might appear to offer little hope for a bright future; however, through the sales of their handmade items, artisans are able to generate a sustainable income which fosters a new sense of hope within their family and their community. That hope shines bright with each bracelet purchase!
