I recently stumbled across a business online called Creative Women. It specializes in hand-woven textiles.
I was particularly impressed by the founder and the work that she is dong to empower rural women not by giving them handouts, but by utilizing their unique hand-weaving skills. This business is not only transforming women's lives in Ethiopia, but also in places such as Mali, Swaziland, and Afghanistan. I must say their products are very good and more importantly Creative Women is transforming communities by empowering women who as most research today states are more effective in improving the lives of their families, and communities at large.
