Mai Handicrafts
Mai Handcrafts was started by two social workers who were concerned about improving the lives of street children and single mothers in Ho Chi Minh City and ethnic minorities in mountain hamlets. Assistance is offered in the areas of quality control, marketing, and export procedures. The 300 artisans (80% are women) associated with Mai Handcrafts are earning between US$50 and $70 a month in a country where the average monthly income is US$20-30. Traditional Vietnamese dolls, jute mats, silk scarves & purses, and bamboo furniture are their current bestsellers.

| Your orders help with food, school costs for my 3 children and help to make life’s conditions better. We are artists and we depend on orders for our livelihood. Life is better. We can purchase our own looms. - Raphael Morales - MCCH, Ecuador. |
