Through our Global Gear we want to create small connections for you, the customer, with the people who makes the products you purchase.  Perhaps it’s information about their village or their home life or just that they live on the other side of the world.  It’s all a reminder to us that someone else’s hands have touched the gift or piece of clothing that we buy before ours have and we have the opportunity to be mindful of their work and be thankful for it.

In practical ways you help support a family in Kathmandu when you purchase a beautiful paper bead necklace and earrings set.  You show your support for disadvantaged women in Bangladesh when buying a recycled cement tote or laptop bag.  Purchasing a cotton kikoi wrap helps provide employment for men and women living with disabilities in Nakuru, Kenya.

The words of a young lady in Nepal express it well, “This is our daily life. So we are trying to help our mum like this. And she is also proud with us, and our job.”

Many thanks for partnering with One Colour.
