SOCIAL ENTREPENEUR
CCC - Conscious Consorcio
Clothing Conscious Convergence + Consorcio de Asociaciones de Santiago
This is enormous for the community as there are minimal ways to make a living in the highlands of Guatemala, and the project will pay fair trade wages.
The project has been running since September 2016, coming a long way since January 2016!
This is a huge goal for us, and if you would like to participate or show support, you can purchase something from our items and/or provide space for us to show them!
