Capacity-Building Grants

OUR VISION

We envision a safer, healthier, and more prosperous global community by supporting women artisans so they can create a brighter future for themselves, their families, and their communities. We respond to the needs of women’s artisan communities through our grants program, thereby strengthening their internal capacity to grow into self-sufficiency.

WE INVEST IN:

  • Design, leadership, and business training
  • New and renovated workspaces
  • Updated equipment, quality tools and supplies


      PRIORITY IS GIVEN TO ARTISANS:

      • Whose work represents endangered, culturally-significant textile traditions
      • Who have no other means of sustainable income
      • Who have a strong leader and potential for growth
