empowering women through design

Please take a moment to watch this amazing video below. I went to college with Kirsten and I love what Raven+Lily are doing to empower women around the world. I immediately recognized the beautiful women from Ethiopia and can't wait to purchase some of the beautiful items they are making! I get so excited when people use their God-given gifts and talents to make a difference in the lives of those suffering from extreme poverty.

I don't comment often but love your blog. I was so excited to see that some of the items are made by Burundian women (our son is waiting for us in Burundi). Thank you so much for posting this.
