2nd Story Goods
Our Impact Partner, 2nd Story Goods, understands how it feels to want to buy things that are good for the people who made them, the planet, and you.
This is why they have been working on the ground with their artisans in Gonaives, Haiti for 10 years, creating recycled, handcrafted goods for a livable wage.
Last year, their impact enabled over 108 children to stay in school, not because of hand-outs, but through the dignity of their parents’ work with 2nd Story Goods.
Empowerment Through Employment + Women Owned + Cultural Preservation
Impact
Empowerment Through Employment
Artisans are paid a living wage (approximately 5x the minimum wage for Haiti) for the time they spend making goods, upfront, by the piece.
Cultural Preservation
The Metal Art, also known as Steel Drum Art of Haiti has been famous for decades throughout the world. The metal used is from recycled steel drums.
Ethical Sourcing
Products are all ethically-sourced in Haiti (with the exception of Not I But We, which is ethically sourced in South Africa)! The majority of their products are handmade in Jubilee.
