Kamay Krafts Co-operative - Philippines

This is a business with a difference. That is, the people who are crafting these items are the owners of the business as well. We are a group of about 100 women from depressed areas of Manila (The Philippines) who have come together, pooled our resources and in so doing earn a living. In normal businesses a few get rich while the majority stay entrapped in poverty. By a system of profit sharing we are able to lift our standard of living so that we are not always living in debt.
