Maybe you've been reading my Monday blog posts for the last few weeks, and sighing as you close your computer. You might feel just like my friend Heatherly:
"How could I, with little disposable income and small children, possibly save the world? I wasn't Super Woman. I was just a mom. Just a wife. Just someone who looked into the eyes of these women: women like me who just wanted dignity, who just needed to know their purpose, who just wanted to be able to care for their children, to keep their families together."
She wanted to help, but she just didn't believe that she had the means. (To read the rest of Heatherly's story, click here.)
Heatherly found a way to not only help women across the globe through free trade but also to partner with them as she helped contribute to her own family's finances. Trades of Hope is an organization that allows American women to join hands with women in poverty around the world. In partnering, they find that they have far more in common than differences.
I am LONGING to have a Trades of Hope party at my house, so if you become one of their reps in the Raleigh, NC area, make sure to let me know first! Here's how you can be a part:
