The Kiva of Fair Trade

The Hoop Fund - Profit - www.jointhehoop.com

Free Range does an excellent job telling stories, and we have a story that needs to be told. We believe that everything in life is better when life is rich with meaningful connections. By deepening the relationship between consumers and producers through lending and buying; between ourselves and the craftsmen, artisans and farmers who make the products we buy & we believe we're not just bettering their worlds, but our own too. To tell this story and to motivate people to become engaged in their own supply chain we need a story and design that speaks to people, and Free Range would make this all possible.

        The Hoop helped us raise $2,500 to deepen our marketing and sales efforts in the United States. With their help, we also sold 400 laptop sleeves that are made from car seat covers that would otherwise have gone into landfill. We are grateful for their existence and assistance.
