This product is made by KORISSA, a small women-led business based in New York City. They encourage the modern shopper to purchase consciously by offering environmentally and socially responsible handmade goods. The company partners with artisan organizations that are Fair Trade Certified™ and commit to operating a safe and healthy workplace, promoting environmental sustainability, empowering rural women through handicraft production and small job creation, and paying each artisan a fair living wage.
They are committed to consuming less and being more conscious about waste by using eco-friendly, sustainable materials and forms of production. Purchasing any of the unique amazing handcrafted products supports and benefits artisans in low-income communities. Fair wages ensure that education, health care, and new possibilities are available to these communities.
The company is proud to support reforestation in partnership with one tree planted as part of its commitment to sustainability. Their team cares deeply about the planet and is committed to giving back to nature through their business. By planting trees, they work towards creating clean air and water systems, expanding the biodiversity of our ecosystem, supporting overall health and wellbeing, and creating jobs for local professionals.
Also, they collaborate with ASROY, an organization that commits to uplifting women in vulnerable situations. In Bangladesh, human rights violations and gender-based domestic violence are widespread problems disproportionately affecting women in the country. Together, they work towards building an unprejudiced, violence-free society. They support the development of a healthy, happy environment where all children can feel safe and have the opportunity to learn and explore freely. Through daycare support and community-building efforts, ASROY hopes to create a safe, equitable environment for all.
