At the Museum of Natural History Environmental Luncheon last week, I met a friend, Catherine Shimony, who has created a wonderful business, Global Goods Partners. See the story of how it started below. GGP is a nonprofit social enterprise dedicated to alleviating poverty and promoting social justice in the Global South bu creating economic opportunity for women in some of the world’s poorest communities. GGP provides access to the US market for the fair trade, handmade products they produce.
As mother’s day approaches, we salute this two dedicated and creative mothers. Why not give mother a gift that gives twice? I would be really touched to give or receive any of Global Goods Partner’s handmade creations. Please visit their website to see all of the items and to read about the organization.
