Set of 4 Wood Coasters
Created by the Khutsala Artisans in Swaziland, Africa, this set of 4 wooden coasters has been cut, sanded, and wrapped with a beautiful, silver handmade FMSC charm (also made by the artisans!)
By purchasing this piece of art, you are supporting the livelihood of one of 80 artisans who are now able to provide food and support to themselves and their families.
Meet the artisans who make this product.
Haitian Clay Mug
Meet the Artisans who make these mugs!
Why is this clay unique? In desperate times, extremely poor families in Haiti will mix clay from the ground with water, oil and salt to create a clay "cookie." These clay cookies are eaten by adults and children in order to fill their stomachs when food is not available.
By transforming the same clay into these beautiful mugs, artisans from Port-Au-Prince, Haiti are able to sculpt their way out of poverty and support their families!
Winter Blend Ground Coffee
As the cold weather arrives, FMSC has once again partnered with our coffee farmer friends in Haiti with Singing Rooster Coffee to create an FMSC Winter Blend Ground coffee.
This rich and smooth medium/dark roast is a blend of rare, heirloom coffees from Haiti, Africa, and South America. It boasts a thick chocolaty body with a fruity surprise.
This winter coffee gift set can be purchased for $72 and will provide 167 FMSC meals to children around the world.
All of these items were made by artisans in regions that receive FMSC meals. This holiday, shop at the MarketPlace to provide sustainable employment to communities and full bellies to children around the world.
