Global Initiatives: Local Impact
From elementary education in Nepal to midwife training in Mali, Full Circle pursues social, environmental, and economic initiatives that impact artisan communities in Africa, Asia, and South America. In Nepal, every workshop employee, artisan, raw material supplier and farmer involved with Full Circle is given an education stipend to pay for the elementary education of their children. Full Circle has also created a sustainable and scalable model for rural development in West Africa where 350 women are enrolled in the community gardens program. In addition, more than 6,000 women are enrolled in the Full Circle Savings Program where they record their savings and take out loans from each other.
