Afghan Marketplace:

 

Beautiful hand-crafted products made by Afghan women are sold through our volunteer network in Canada.  Some samples of products and books sold may be viewed below.

 

This year, our Ottawa volunteers are setting up an Afghan Marketplace on Saturday, October 1, 2016. Come prepared to shop!

 

The artisans are paid for the products at the time the shipments are made to Canada and prices are set at fair wages. This initiative provides educational and economic opportunities to previously unemployed and unskilled Afghan women. A small profit from product sales provides chapter members with resources for their public engagement activities in Canada.
