Heart of Haiti is helping rebuild Haiti through “Trade, Not Aid.” In other words, Heart of Haiti is using commerce and culture to create social change. They have created opportunities for Haitian artisans to earn income with dignity by creating jobs and income for the people of Haiti. Community members will now be able to pay school fees, repair homes, and feed and clothe their families. The income will also provide access to better nutrition, improved education and healthcare. The Heart of Haiti collection is full of handmade products for the home including quilts, metalwork, ceramics and paintings. Each item is designed by a Haitian master artisan and handmade with recycled materials. The Heart of Haiti collection has already led to employment of 350 artists in Haiti and has provided some financial benefits for an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 people in the country. Most items fall in the $25-$60 range so they are both reasonably priced and go towards a great cause!
