This episode of Big Blend Radio's "Quality of Life" Show features Kristen Welch, who along with her husband Terrell, founded Mercy House Global. Hear about their Fair Trade Friday Club, a monthly subscription of fair trade goodies. Each month they partner with fair trade, faith groups across the globe to bring members 3-4 unique, high quality items. These artisan groups represent women in hard situations, including those rescued from human trafficking and those who live in extreme poverty, who are in need of work in order to support themselves and their families. Each box also includes a story booklet with descriptions of the items in the box and beautiful stories of the artisans and how members have impacted their lives.

By working with over 40 non-profit artist groups, the Fair Trade Friday Club empowers women in over 30 countries. More: https://www.fairtradefriday.club/
